Marshal & Sarah Rake
We married in 2016 and have known for a long time that becoming parents is a deep desire of our hearts. We went through infertility for years and considered adoption at times throughout that journey. Early this year, we felt the Lord guiding us toward adoption to grow our family. We feel like we are stepping into the plan God has had for us for a long time, and we are ready to provide a loving, nurturing home to a child.
**The first $3,000 donated to this project will be matched!!**

Baby Rake
We are adopting domestically within the United States and are currently registered with agencies and awaiting our match. We’re praying for the birth family and God’s timing in our adoption journey.
Christi
Christi suffered a major stroke in December 2016, leaving her on disability and causing regular seizures. In June 2022, she lost her husband, Rick, to cancer. Most recently, she went through two knee replacements in just four months. Her home is in need of some extra care, and we are honored to come alongside her through this project to bless a widow in our community.
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.
