Victoria & Steven Cerise
We are excited to share: we are officially home study approved for adoption! As many of you know, our path toward parenthood has not come easily over our 5+ years of marriage. Adopting has been on our hearts for many years (we even talked about adoption before we were married) and it has become clear that this is the path God is leading us to! We are so grateful for your support on this journey!
*The first $3,000 donated to this project will be matched!**

Baby Cerise
Adoption has come up in little ways over the last few years, but in 2025, it finally felt like God was calling us to start the process! We are home study approved which means we could be "matched" anytime! Future Baby Cerise is already loved in so many ways and we are so excited to share our love + the Faith with him/her.
Domestic adoption costs around $60,000, which primarily covers agency fees, birth mother care (support with daily living, counseling, etc) and legal fees.
Ms. Mary
Ms. Mary is so special to us - she actually let Victoria stay with her for 2.5 months when she moved to the Cincinnati area before we were married! She is such a kindhearted, joyful and Faith-filled woman! We want to repay her generosity toward us and are so excited to help her with various projects she has around her home!
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.
