We are beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel that is paperwork! We are currently finishing up our Dossier which is the enormous stack of notarized and state sealed documents that will be sent to Uganda. The day they land in country, our official wait for a referral begins. Each month our agency sends out a program update that details how many families have received referrals, how many are traveling, how many have passed court, and how many are HOME with their precious children. We are VERY excited that it looks like once our Dossier lands in Uganda, our wait for a referral will be quite short, most likely only a month or two.
As we continue to work on our Dossier, we are also applying with many non-profit agencies for grants to aid in the expense of this adventure. Our social worker seems to think we are very likely candidates for such assistance, which is very exciting! However, we are also beginning to make plans to raise the funds that we need to bring our daughter home in other ways.
Recently we had a good friend, Danielle Hill, approach us about a potential fundraiser. She is a sales rep for the company "thirty-One" and she offered to host a "show", and donate her commission to our adoption efforts!. Isn't that amazing? We are so touched by her generosity, and grateful for her help.
Thirty-one is a company that specializes in bags, totes, etc. of all sorts. Their products are versatile, beautifully made, and SO fun. I hope you'll consider flipping through their inventory. items can be personalized and make great gifts for any occasion!
The best way to help is to spread the word, so please feel absolute freedom to forward this information and flier along to anyone who you think may be interested. I will also be posting on facebook.
