Welcome to Gift of Adoption South Carolina: Adoption Grants

About Gift of Adoption South Carolina

You don’t have to adopt to give a child a family.  Gift of Adoption awards adoption grants to complete adoptions of children in vulnerable circumstances – giving them permanent families and the chance to thrive.

Each year, Gift of Adoption South Carolina Chapter receives adoption funding requests from approximately 29 qualified families – representing a funding need of $145,000. The goal of the South Carolinas Chapter’s all-volunteer board is to raise enough funds to help complete each of these adoptions. 100% of the money raised by the chapter is directed to uniting children with loving families in the area.

As of December 31 2024, Gift of Adoption has awarded $668,000 in adoption assistance grants across South Carolina to complete the adoptions of 205 children.
