Odeb & Tameka Allen
We are Odeb and Tameka Allen, and we have been married for 11 wonderful years. Our adoption journey began several years ago when God placed it on our hearts to grow our family. While we already have a child, Ethan, we felt a distinct and powerful calling to open our home and our lives through adoption.
**All donations to this project up to $3,000 will be matched!!**

Brothers
We always knew that we wanted to grow our family through adoption, but we officially began our adoption journey in 2019. We chose international adoption from Haiti because we are a Haitian-American family. We were excited to find out that we were matched with two brothers in November of 2024. We hope to bring our sons Markenlove and Mackenley home soon.
Ms. Janet
We met Ms. Janet through one of our close friends. The Lord called Janet’s husband home 2 years ago. Before his passing Janet and her husband served as foster parents for 2 years. Janet still serves the community through nonprofit work that assists juvenile offenders. We will be assisting Janet by reorganizing and painting her kitchen cabinets and we will be setting up a new bedroom for Janet’s special needs daughter.
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.
