There are many ways to get involved.
Adopt a child. If you feel a calling to adopt, go for it! Adoption is a wonderful thing, both for the child and for the family! If you are struggling with the financial part of adoption please see HERE.
Get the kids involved! Summer is coming up so why not have a lemonade stand? Or what about a car wash? Usually both of these raise a couple hundred dollars. No gift is too small. You could also have people bring donations to your favorite organization in lieu of a birthday present.
Another way to help is to hold a fundraiser in your town. Have a party, charge admission, and give the donations to an orphan care ministry!
Give a charitable gift in honor of someone. If there is an organization that you really love, you can give a donation to that organization in honor of someone special. This makes for great birthday, Christmas, and just for fun presents.
Do you have a couple thousand dollars burning a whole in your pocket, but you don't feel the calling to adopt? Support a family! There are many families that would love to adopt, but adoption is so expensive. Money shouldn't keep a hopeless child from a loving family. By helping someone else adopt, you are making a difference in the life of one orphan. Because of you, there is one less orphan in this world.
Do something you love to do! Do you like to sew? What about cook? Clean? Babysit? You could do something you love and give all or part of the proceeds to an orphan care ministry!
