Taylor & Emily Vanderlip
From the beginning of our marriage, we’ve always known that God was calling us to have a big family and to love children deeply — not just our own, but any child He placed in our path. We now have three biological children, ages 9, 7, and 6 — close in age and incredibly close in heart. After our third child, we knew that growing our family biologically was not the safest option for me physically. Yet, our desire for more children never left. We have been foster parents and through that process we fell in love with the Hispanic culture and knew we wanted to finish our forever family. We met our girls through the KidSave program, where they lived with us last summer and through that we knew they were meant to be our daughters. We will be adding biological sisters from Colombia to our family soon!
**The first $4,000 donated to this project will be matched!**

Sisters
Our girls are waiting to be adopted in their country, Colombia. We had the privilege of hosting the girls for an entire summer last year and we knew immediately they were a perfect fit for our family. They are 10 and 14. Our entire family was blessed by the girls and there wasn't one reason why we couldn't' adopt them into our family as our own. We will travel this summer for a month to go get our daughters and bring them home, forever!
Ms. Diane
Ms. Diane, who lost her husband and rock a few years ago is a member of our church. She has been unable to enjoy life or attend church because of health reasons. We are hopeful to bring joy to her life by fixing her ramp to ensure its stable for her walker and take care of any miscellaneous projects around her house.
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?
