MEET GRACE DANIELLA

We are so proud to be a small part of bringing the Koos family together and being part of their long journey in joining them with beautiful Grace!

“Grace is the start of our long-awaited family! We knew in our hearts that the boundless love that we have to give, not DNA, is what was needed for parenthood...that is until we got to the last page of the agency application. We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have growing careers, but the astronomical costs of adoption seemed impossible for us to climb. We then realized that love isn’t the only thing needed for adoption. Our agency shared with us that at least 70% of potential parents do not proceed with the process due to the financial obligation that comes with adoption. It hurt our hearts to know that so many others, with homes and hearts ready for parenthood, may never feel the gift of an adoption connection due to finances. In our situation, we were shocked by the required costs immediately put upon us following Grace’s birth but could not allow them to hinder bringing our daughter home. Without Nicole, Nate, and the Griffin’s Gift team and the work they are doing we would be saddled with high interest debt and the the frustration that comes with it. They are taking the first step in answering the question, ‘How can we change the world together so families in their first week of bonding with their newly adopted child are not overwhelmed with mandatory invoices from agencies and lawyers?’ How many more families would open their hearts and homes to adoption if we could change this?”
