What People Say About Us

"Lucca has such a fun personality and loves to make everyone around him laugh... He runs, talks, dances, and plays with his sister. We can’t imagine life without our two little blessings. Gift of Adoption helped make both possible, and we are forever grateful for the financial help we received."

"We have witnessed so much in the last year of Ginny’s life. She is absolutely thriving. When we picked her up she was saying around 10 words consistently. She is now saying so much we can’t keep up. She is enjoying going to kindergarten every day and learning lots of new things. The gift of adoption is unending joy. Joy through every little thing that we get to celebrate with our daughter. Joy through her overcoming things that people said she would never overcome. Joy through seeing her thriving. Joy through being able to love her forever."

Jada & Jake of Loxley, Alabama, Adopted Ginny in 2019
