We’ve come up with some really exciting ways to help fund our adoption and we hope you’ll take part to help support us!
Current Fundraiser:
#PitchInForAdoption, a world record attempt by Matt himself for the most pitches thrown in an eight-hour period! This is taking place soon on Friday, October 4th, 2019 at Louisville Slugger Field from 9:30am-5:30pm. Come down in person to watch Matt throw some pitches and take part in some games, t-shirt sales, bake sale, and pledges. All money from this event is going straight into our adoption fund. We hope to make this our last fundraiser but we’re in need of $12,500 to make that a reality! Help us make our goal! If you can’t attend in-person, check out the live stream on our Facebook page day-of: www.Facebook.com/FamilyRedesigned. Pledge a certain amount per pitch or donate a flat amount at PledgeIt.com/PitchInForAdoption. You can also bid on silent auction items NOW up until 10pm on October 4th at www.32auctions.com/PitchInForAdoption. Share this news with someone you know or just blast it on social media to help us get the word out!
Corydon Farmer’s Market
Katie sets up at the Corydon, IN Farmer’s Market every Friday from 4pm-7pm EST under her business name, Katie Cakes Bakery. Every dollar that comes in from her baked good sales go straight to the adoption fund. Plus, she takes orders! Some of the yummies you’ll find are chocolate chunk cookies, lemon bars, made-from-scratch brownies, mini cupcakes, pie pops, cake balls, monster cookies, white chocolate raspberry cookies, and banana nut bread. Stop by and try out some goodies!
Donations:
If you feel led to donate to our adoption, we are beyond grateful. We have set-up a few different options to make this as easy for you as possible. Choose whichever makes the most sense for you and again, thank you!
PayPal: An easy and quick way to give. All monies received go straight into our adoption fund. Gifts are NOT tax deductible but we do 100% of the funds (no credit card or transaction fees). Click the PayPal link to get started.
AdoptTogether: Our adoption crowdfunding grant that is set up with AdoptTogether.org / PURE CHARITY, a project of Hoping Hearts Foundation, an IRS approved 501(c)(3) organization which means all your donations made through their site are tax deductible. We’re hoping to raise a portion of our overall funds needed here and then they’ll be distributed directly to the agency the birth mom we get matched with is using (-5% for credit card processing and administrative fees).

We have done so many different things in attempt to raise the needed funds to bring our baby girl home. These include vendor/craft shows, extra freelance work and video jobs, gift wrapping, holiday pies, cookie decorating kits, ongoing Farmer’s Market, Color Street party, and donations. Check out Our Financial Goal page to see how we did on these efforts.
