Adam & Suzanne Martin
Hello! We are Adam and Suzanne. We met on eHarmony and after six months of dating we decided to get married. We have been married for 13 years and have one daughter, Ava. Our home is full of energy, laughter, giggles, and an endless love for each other and Jesus Christ. Adoption has been on our mind for several years, and we are grateful for the role Both Hands has in our journey.
**The first $3,000 donated to this project will be matched!**

Baby Martin
After years of pokes, prods, doctor's appointments and surgery we were able to overcome our infertility issues. After Ava was born a miscarriage and a cancer diagnosis dashed our hopes of having another biological child. We are working with Faithful Adoption Consultants to help find us a mother or baby girl to match with. We are excited to live out James 1:27.
Domestic adoption costs around $60,000, which primarily covers agency fees, birth mother care (support with daily living, counseling, etc) and legal fees.
Ms. Shelia
We are going to be serving Ms. Shelia. We were introduced through a contact in our church. Turns out we all went to the same church years ago when Adam was a child. It's a small world. Shelia's husband died 6 years ago in April and has lived in her home for 30 years. We are going to install a new landscape wall, paint a fence and the front of her house, decluttering, and yard cleanup.
A Different Kind of Fundraiser
A team of volunteers is completing a service project of fixing up a widow's home. We are raising sponsorship for our day of service. The funds raised will help a child to become adopted into a forever family. Will you sponsor us?

No Administration Fees
We don’t take a penny out of the funds raised for adoption or orphan care projects for ourselves.
We are committed to doing everything we can to help our Both Hands families afford adoption. That’s why we don't take out any administrative fees from donations to our projects. If a donor chooses not to cover the credit card and processing fees, Both Hands will cover it to ensure 100% of the gift supports the cause.
We raise funds for our operations separately through support from donors like you. By supporting Both Hands, you help us serve more adoptive families, bless more widows, and bring even more children into their forever families.
