If this needs to be combined with the old private adoption thread, feel free to do so Kel or whomever.
I just wanted to keep you guys posted and reach out. The wife and I have officially started our adoption process. We're waiting on our home study report to come back and we've officially been accepted by our adoption consultants.
Im not one to ask for handouts. I'd rather it be the other way around. But, this is way beyond me. We are doing a few fund raisers, a spaghetti dinner and a silent auction. I plan on reaching out to a few vendors to see if anyone would be interested in donating towards that.
I've also been kicking the idea around of doing a fund raiser ride. The shock of all this has really pushed me to want to help others in the same boat. I'm thinking of starting a nonprofit and raising money each year through rides, swag, etc. with all of the proceeds going back to families, connected to the Offroad community that are trying to adopt. I know we already do several rides for kiddos(crawling for Reid, toys for tots, and so on). But, if we're going to a park anyways, I don't see why a portion couldn't go to help out.
All that being said, we also started a youcaring page. If any of you would like to help Mrs. The and myself on this journey, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
