For many of us, affording
adoption is a ridiculous notion. We have to scrimp & save, sell stuff, borrow from relatives, take out home equity
loans, apply for grants, etc. Whatever it takes, (including lots of prayers) to come up with the money. But children
are priceless and we'll do whatever is necessary to bring them into our lives!
On this page I will be listing various links
to adoption grants, low interest adoption loans, etc. It has recently come to my attention that any posts about things
for sale are strictly forbidden on Ivillage. THIS INCLUDES POSTS ABOUT FUNDRAISERS..... No
reference must be made to items for sale within any post. HOWEVER, it IS allowed for you to make reference to a website in
part of your signature line. So if any of you will be doing fundraisers for your adoption, you can set up a website
for it, then make mention of it in your signature line on every post you make. Here's an example of what is acceptable:
Lucy, Mom to Abigail, age 2, and waiting
for referral
VERY IMPORTANT
THOUGH: You must not mention anything about it in your post. I know this seems silly, but it is Ivillage's
site, it's their rules and Ivillage provides free websites, e-ml, etc. So who are we to complain? :o)
If anyone has any questions, feel free to e-ml
me and I will try to clarify this further.
