Puzzle Fundraiser
Here's how the fundraiser works:
We have purchased a 1000-piece World Map Puzzle for Blue (Lee) that will eventually be glued together, framed, and placed in our home. We are asking friends and family members to purchase a puzzle piece for a $5 donation. We will write your name on the back of the puzzle piece(s) you purchased. When all 1000 pieces have been purchased, we will glue the puzzle together, frame it, and hang it in our son’s room. The picture of the world map was chosen as an incredible example of how God can bring people together even with so many miles between them. When Blue (Lee) comes home, we will all put the puzzle together as a family and see the awesome display of people who helped make this possible. The picture will be a constant reminder of how many loved ones have helped to make our the come true.
You can use the Donate Button on the right side of the blog to donate or by clicking here: Donation. Donations will be sent directly to our account and will be used to pay agency fees and travel to China to pick up our boy. Please email us the names that you want on the pieces and if you would prefer to mail a check, send us an email at: blueskies2lee @ yahoo.com and we will send you our address.
This is what the puzzle will look like:
Why we need your support:
Adoption is costly, which not many people realize. Our international adoption is going to cost us $30,000-$33,000. We are fundraising for most of the money and applying for adoption grants to help with the cost. Adoption requires us to put out this money all at once; we don't have the luxury of paying a little at a time or paying for it over time. Also, unforeseen costs are a possibility. We hope that this fundraiser will lighten our load a little and allow us to focus less on the cost and more on the blessing we are about to receive.
We have so many wonderful people in our lives and we know that many of them will be anxious to help us raise the money to bring our boy home. We are grateful to have the support of so many loved ones and are truly appreciative of any donations we receive.
