Shawn & Marie Rivera

July 19, 2025 | St. Cloud, FL

Hello, we are Shawn & Marie! Our story began in 2021 and since then, we have experienced God’s faithfulness in so many ways. We know that with God all things are possible, and we are excited to see Him continue to move mightily as we answer the call to adopt! We know that God has the perfect miracle child who will soon enter our family through adoption. We look forward to seeing how God continues to write our story!

**The first $4,000 donated to this project will be matched!!**

Ms. Connie

Widow | Florida

Ms. Connie lost her husband three years ago after 45 years of marriage. She attends the same church as the Riveras, along with her daughter and two granddaughters. She selflessly serves in various areas within the church. Today her home is in need of some tender loving care, and we feel so honored to bless her through this service project! We can’t wait for project day!

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.
