Sponsor Kilometers

We are VERY excited about bringing our little girl home, hopefully in the next year to year and a half. Aside from the paperwork and bureaucracy, the main obstacle we face is funds. International adoption is very expensive. We are hoping to raise about half the money we still need through fundraising. Interestingly enough this dollar amount is approximately the same number as the number of kilometers between Ethiopia’s capital and Victoria (about 9400). If we can raise one dollar for each kilometer between us and our daughter, we will be able to bring her home! A PayPal account has been set up for people to contribute various amounts. If you feel inspired to take part and contribute, we would be eternally grateful. Well, perhaps for one hundred years. Make that fifty. How about we link the years of gratefulness to how much you contribute? Leah says that I can't link how long we'll be grateful to how much you contribute, so we'll just be very grateful for a very long time. We are also going to look into what the Ethiopian orphanages need, specfically from the area we are adopting from (TBD). We'll keep you posted as we find out more. Hopefully we'll be able to meet some of these needs as well.
