Ukrainian Hope Fund
This fund is important for those children waiting in Ukraine, who will remain hidden without the help of very loving, kind, and generous individuals who desire to find families for our children with Down syndrome.
Through our humanitarian and missionary work with orphanage directors and staff, we have built strong, trusting relationships in many Ukrainian orphanages. We have helped them see the truth about children with Down syndrome and other disabilities, and are slowly proving to them that families DO want these children and they will adopt them if given the opportunity. The more children who get adopted, the stronger our "case".
Some orphanage directors are worried about giving us identifying information about the children, but some are open and thrilled to have the chance to make a true difference in any of their children's lives. There is a constant in-flow and out-flow of children with Down syndrome, which means regular trips to these orphanages for new photos, updates, and advocacy efforts, etc.
This fund helps to pay for the travel expenses of our dear helpers in Ukraine. This is not a salary. There is no money given in exchange for the information or photos of the children. The work of Reece's Rainbow is a ministry in every aspect of the word. But in order to get "the word" out, we have to be willing to pay for travel expenses.
Please contribute to this "Ukrainian Hope Fund" today!! We can't find families to adopt these children if we don't know they exist. It keeps our Ukraine program operational, and every penny has the ability to reach another child with Down syndrome in Ukraine. The monthly cost to do this is $150. You can make a one-time donation, or subscribe to a $10 a month subscription!
Contributions to this fund are tax deductible, just as every other contribution to Reece's Rainbow is. Give a child in Ukraine an EQUAL CHANCE of being chosen for adoption!
