Meet the Bolin Family!!

So, there is this family called the Bolin Family
and they are adopting from Uganda.

They sent in a video.

Okay, pause.
Let me be real for a moment.
Don't judge.
I don't always watch all the videos. Ack. I know....
I said, "don't judge."
But I opened this one up and went all crazy.
I turned off my music, shut down hulu, logged off facebook 
and actually watched this one. It's fast, and really well done.
Dude, they even have microphones on!
Who are these people?!?

Well, they are the Bolin's. They have this energy that just flows out of the video. They are funny and cute.
They have huge hearts that want to give a sibling set from Uganda a home. And they happen to have made a pretty awesome video...just sayin'.

This is so easy. Watch the video (prepare for the awe factor), head to youcaring and donate $1, go to facebook and share this page with your friends and ask them to donate $1. Did you know that actually asking them to participate greatly increasing the odds that they will? True social media tip for the day.
Don't forget to follow their blog to keep up with their adoption!

Meet the Morales Family!

Hey friends! I'm so glad you came by the blog today! We're always so happy to have new people visit and support our adoptive families.
Time to introduce our family of the week. 


After being together for 19 years, their family is growing! Stephen and Melissa Morales are adopting a handsome 10 year old boy from China.  They saw him on the Waiting Child List and it was love at first sight.

Take a look at their sweet video:)

The Morales' are hoping to raise enough money to help cover plane tickets and travel expenses.  It's getting close to time to go get their son, Tommy, and bring him home!  Can you help? 
Stephen and Melissa have a YouCaring fund for donations. Visit this site to give your dollars!

Meet the Graney Family!

Happy Monday!

I know, everyone dreads Monday, and the start of their work weeks, but here at Give1Save1, we LOVE Monday's, because we get to introduce you to our new family!

Meet Jesse, Justine, and Payton Graney.  



I'll let them tell you a little about themselves:

"We have one biological daughter named Peyton. She was a surprise at the very start of our marriage. And we know now how much of a miracle she is.When we started to try to conceive our second child we had fertility problems we were never aware of. After many treatments and surgeries we were finally told we would no longer be able to have any more biological children. This was hard news, but we have always known that someday we would be adoptive parents so making the decision to adopt was an easy one! And here we are! On one of the most exciting experiences of our lives:)"




They are currently waiting to be matched with a little boy here in the United States.  Let's roll out the carpet, welcome them as our family of the week.

Head on over to their YouCaring page and donate a dollar.  I'm giving up an iced coffee and donating to them instead, would you join me?

You can follow their process in the Facebook group, Bring Baby Graney Home

Have a Happy Monday!

Introducing the Anderson Family

Meet Amber and Micheal Anderson and their children Seth, Evie, and Gillian!



The Andersons are adopting Xing, age 11, and WeiQiang, age 6, from China. Xing had a brain injury either during birth or shortly after. He has hydrocephalus (post operative), brain differences to his right hemisphere, and left side paralysis. WeiQiang has a genetic blood disorder, Beta Thalassemia Major.

Michael & Amber have been married just shy of 14 years. They decided they would have a large family, probably six children, and then, when those children were grown, they would start a new wave of children through adoption. As it turned out, after 3 bio children, biology made that initial plan impossible. Instead of mourning, they moved up their adoption plans! They are certified foster & adoptive parents through their state, but were unable to secure a permanent placement.

They never intended to seek international adoption, but after discovering a special needs adoption site called Reece’s Rainbow completely by chance, they began to research the terrible conditions in foreign orphanages and their hearts were softened that international adoption wasn’t for ‘someday’ when they had more money but that, as MLK said, “The time is always right to do what is right.”
