“The high cost of adoption made it seem out of reach for us to have a family, but knowing this assistance was available and with support of family, we had hope that we could manage it. Thank you so much for the wonderful news that we were awarded a grant from Peyton’s Promise.”

“Adoption can be soooo expensive and we were lucky to receive the Peyton’s Promise grant. Adoption shouldn’t be all about the financial piece but it really ends up being unfortunately. We are so blessed to have our darling Hannah.”

“Adoptions are outrageously expensive and it’s hard to find financing. Thanks so much for your help with Josiah’s adoption.”

“We don’t know how to begin to thank Peyton’s Promise and their many generous donors for making adoption possible. “Thank you” honestly doesn’t seem strong enough to convey the depth of our gratitude. Adoption is truly a humbling experience that has taught us gratitude in a way that we could have never fully comprehended before.”

“Thanks to your grant, our hard work and sacrifice, and the generosity of our friends and family, we were able to raise the money necessary for the adoption. This grant truly is the last money that we needed to finalize and become a family of three. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!”

“Peyton’s Promise changed our lives by bridging the financial gap we faced in adopting Matthew. We knew we wanted to adopt for awhile, but the financial hurdle was the biggest obstacle we faced. When we discovered The Gift of Adoption, we were so excited that resources such as these existed. We applied and very quickly received notification that we were awarded a grant. We were absolutely thrilled. With the grant we received from Peyton’s Promise, we were able to lessen the gap between what we had and what we owed and, in addition, got a huge boost to our faith. Almost all the expenses have been paid now and it wouldn’t have been nearly as easy without the help of Peyton’s Promise. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your wonderful generosity. God bless you for the work you’ve done for us and for the work you’ll do for other forever families.”

“I am a local government firefighter. When we started the adoption process it seemed impossible for us to ever afford to be able to grow our family. Peyton’s Promise made it possible for us.”

“A car accident took me out of work just as we were facing unepected complications and expenses in the adoption process. The grant was a blessing and we needed it so much to complete this adoption. We can’t imagine our lives without Tyler. We cannot thank you enough!”

“The Peyton’s Promise grant has been a huge blessing to us, especially as we had additional and unexpected expenses to India. We are so thankful for those that recognize how critical this financial support is to making this all work. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”

“We spent 10 years trying to start our family, accruing a large amount of debt in the process. Adoption seemed impossible, but with the help of Peyton’s Promise, we were able to finance our adoption.We simply would not have our little boy without all this love and generosity.”

“We would like to thank Peyton’s Promise for their generosity and the help of finalizing our adoption with Emmett. We cannot thank organizations like Peyton’s Promise enough for helping offset the cost of adoption, not only for ourselves but for other families as well, which for those of you who have gone through the process know exactly how expensive it is. You have offered hope when we didn’t think we had any left! Thank you so VERY much!”

“We received a large bill from our agency on Friday and on Saturday we found out that we had received the Peyton’s Promise grant. Our extreme worry immediately changed and we felt more prepared to navigate the rest of Jax’s adoption journey. We are forever grateful.”

“For us, adoption had to be a bit of a financial leap of faith, because we don’t have a lot of disposable income. Because of the Peyton’s Promise grant we received, we can pay our loan back faster and start saving for the children’s ongoing education.”

“The Peyton’s Promise grant has taken so much stress away! Now we can focus on using our income to care and raise these children, instead of worrying about paying off our lawyer and adoption fees."

“Miah’s arrival was a huge surprise. I feared that the final adoption fees would put me in debt, which created a huge amount of stress. The Peyton’s Promise grant alleviated that stress. I am so lucky that I am able to provide a nurturing, loving, consistent and safe home life for Miah.”

“People don’t realize how expensive adoption is and there isn’t a lot of outside support. We are so grateful for the Peyton’s Promise grant. It really means the world to us. We are so in love and feel so honored to have been chosen by her beautiful birth mother to be her parents.”

"We literally had 10 days before learning about the potential adoption and meeting our son. Peyton's Promise gave us hope financially to complete our adoption of Gabriel and not have a financial burden hanging over our heads. Thank you!"
