The International Adoption process has many hurdles that, when we first began, seemed to be insurmountable. There are the piles of paperwork, the whim of a foreign countries adoption program, and the financial cost, totaling around $30,000. We had absolutely no idea how we would ever be able to cover all of the fees required to bring a little one home and we soon realized something important…WE could not do it alone. Thanks to the help of so many in our community who have given of their time and resources to help us fundraise, and thanks to a God who had been preparing us for this journey before we even knew we would be taking it, over $20,000 has been paid to date! We are on to our final fundraiser and we would love for you to be a part of it! We have a 500 piece puzzle that is just waiting to be put together, but we need some help to do it. Puzzle pieces can be sponsored for $10 each. Sponsor as many pieces as you like, and for every piece sponsored, we will write the name of the sponsor on the back. When the puzzle is completed we will frame it in two-sided glass and hang it in our home as a constant reminder of all those who worked together to bring our girl home.If you would like to sponsor a puzzle piece (or two, or three, or four), you are able to do so by clicking the donate button to your right. If you would like to send a check in the mail, please email us at christina.kyllonen@gmail.com and we'll be so happy to give you our mailing address!
We look forward to someday telling Ruby about all of the people who eagerly anticipated her homecoming!
