Available Grants?

Posted by JCCFL to U.S. Newborn Waiting Parents on Apr 24, 2012 at 4:09am | 4 Comments | Post a reply

Does anyone have any suggestions on available grants? We are adopting domestically, live in FL, middle-to-low income, and Christians. Any suggestions/leads would be greatly appreciated. Also, we were warned to stay away from any grants that require an application fee, has anyone else heard that? Thanks.

I do not but you can do foster-adopt for free.

I would suggest Show Hope! Their website is showhope.org

I would also look into state adoption and foster to adopt. If you want to adopt infants and live in a large state like CA, it should be pretty easy, but if you live in a small state like UT you may have to foster to adopt. It is free. I have done both foster to adopt and private designated and they each have their own stresses.

I know you asked about grants, but thought I’d let you know about another good option, interest-free loans for Christian parents wanting to adopt. The ABBA fund offers this program. Hope this helps. I also recommend Show Hope for grants.
