Jessica Chappell
If you know me, you know adoption isn’t just something I care about — it’s part of our family’s story. Ten years ago, I became a mom through adoption, and it forever changed our lives. What began as a calling became a legacy of love, faith, and trust in God’s plan. For years, I’ve carried the desire to adopt again. After much prayer and waiting, God has opened the door at just the right time. Saying yes to this journey is exciting and humbling, but adoption also comes with significant financial costs. My goal is to raise $30,000 to bring another child into a home already filled with love and belonging. This is where you become part of our story. Your prayers, encouragement, and support help make this calling possible. Thank you for walking alongside us and helping grow our family in a way that reflects hope, faith, and love.
**The first $3,000 donated to this project will be matched!**

Baby Chappell
We are joyfully matched with a baby girl expected in late April 2026, and our hearts are already growing in anticipation. Our family is excited to welcome a little sister and share with her the love, faith, and deep passion for adoption that defines our home. We can’t wait to watch her story unfold and are grateful for everyone walking alongside us on this journey.
Domestic adoption costs around $60,000, which primarily covers agency fees, birth mother care (support with daily living, counseling, etc) and legal fees.
Waiting Widow
The loss of a beloved spouse often makes it difficult for a widow to keep up with the needed repairs and improvements to her home. We are excited to bless a widow in our community in a big way!
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?

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.
