Brian & Grace Baeten
Hi! We’re the Baeten Family! We’re so thankful to be working with Both Hands to raise money toward our adoption. Building our family has been a journey that spans over a decade, and our family has the two precious boys you see in the photo, and also 13 babies in heaven. We are grateful to be growing our family through adoption and are praying for God’s provision as we wait to bring our baby home.
We first connected with Both Hands during our first project just about a year ago. We’re excited to continue the journey of living out James 1:27 with our community while raising the remaining amount we need for our adoption.
**The first $2,000 donated to this project will be matched!**

Baby Baeten
Adoption has been on our hearts since we first started dating—long before we knew having biological children would be nearly impossible. We were really drawn to the idea of giving a child in need a stable, loving home. Because we’re adopting out of state, the total cost is estimated to be $63,000-65,000. But we’ve seen God work in the impossible before, and we believe He will provide again. We can’t wait to welcome our baby home, surround them with love, and point them to Jesus—they’ll also have the best big brothers!
Mr. Bill & Ms. Gloria
Bill and Gloria recently spent their 52nd wedding anniversary together. Unfortunately, Bill is in the late stages of Parkinson’s dementia. Gloria lovingly provides round-the-clock care for him. We hope to be a blessing to this sweet couple by providing a day of yardwork and painting as we tackle some projects Bill is no longer able to do.
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.
