About Us

Welcome to the Home Page of the Gift of Adoption Ohio Chapter.

GOA-Ohio

Since its inception in 2011, The Ohio Chapter of Gift of Adoption has awarded more than $323,000 to complete adoptions of more than 90 children. These grants have given parentless children from around the world and the United States permanent homes and the chance to thrive.

The Ohio chapter is currently seeking leaders throughout the state to get involved as chapter leaders and help the Ohio chapter continue to grow and reach more families. If you are interested in learning more, please contact Pam Devereux.

Discover our volunteer opportunities.

Board members are responsible for building awareness and raising funds for this rapidly growing, energetic, national, nonprofit dedicated to putting adoption in reach for the millions of children world-wide without a family. Gift of Adoption inspires adoption by providing grants to qualified parents – giving children without families permanent homes and the chance to thrive.

Board members can be located anywhere in the state, but must be willing to participate in monthly calls and quarterly in-person meetings to support the development of a strong state presence – as we create awareness of this new philanthropic category and resource our vision.

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to support such an amazing cause. When we joined the Ohio Board a few years ago I couldn’t have imagine how much I’d grow to love and respect this organization. Every year the Ohio Board gets stronger and stronger and tonight we exceeded every goal. I cried more times than I can count and can’t believe how many children we were able to raise funds tonight to bring home to their forever families.

Doubled our numbers from last year and all it does is make me excited for next year.💜❤️

MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR 2019 🏆

As Mother’s Day approaches, we encourage you to think about all the wonderful women in your life and invite you to celebrate them by making a donation to Gift of Adoption in their name. Your gift will help unite vulnerable children with mothers (and fathers) of their own and will contribute to our efforts to unite one child per day with a loving, permanent family this year.

All donors will receive a decorative Mother’s Day card that can be printed or emailed to the woman (or women) you’re celebrating on May 13th. Wishing all the Mothers out there a wonderful and special day!

To get your special certificate, visit
