Help Blake and Matthew Adopt a Baby!

Donation protected
Since we got married, we knew that we wanted to start a family. Obviously, being two men our options to have a baby are limited. I can’t tell you how many times over the past two years one of us has half-joked: “I wish I could just get pregnant!” But, alas, that is simply not in the cards for us. After considering our options, we have decided that adoption is the best path for us to start our family. The thought of bringing a child into our home who is in need of loving parents just seems like what are meant to do. It’s kismet. And so, we started planning.

Soon after our wedding, we set out to do whatever we could to prepare ourselves for this next chapter in our lives. We have both worked incredibly hard to pay off our debts and build up our credit scores. We have both been promoted multiple times within our respective jobs and have found ourselves feeling more financially and professionally secure than ever. Last year, we went from renters to homeowners and have turned the house into a beautiful space that we would love to bring our baby home to. We are doing everything in our power to ensure that when the time comes, we are ready. And we will be ready. There is no doubt in either of our minds that when we get our baby, we will be able to care for him or her and provide them with the best life.

They say it takes a village to raise a child. Well, this is where we ask our village for help for the first time. While we know we will be able to provide for the baby when they are here, it is the getting them here that will be the challenge. You see, the cost to adopt a child in the state of Arizona averages anywhere from $10,000 - $50,000! Between legal fees, agency fees, medical costs for the birth mother, and many other expenses, there is a hefty hill for us to climb in order to make this dream a reality.

We know that these are extremely tough times for everyone, and we appreciate any donation you can make. There is truly no donation too small when it comes to getting us on the path to bringing home our baby. If you can’t donate, please consider sharing our story to help spread the word.

If you know either of us or both of us, you probably know as well as we do that we are meant to be dads. Please help us make this a possibility. Thank you!

Below are some pictures of us with our nephews to show you us in full-on dad mode! :)
