My wife and I are white. We adopted our wonderful African American children at birth. We strive daily to help our son grow up to be a confident, proud and loving black man and our daughter to be a confident, proud and loving black woman. I hope our experiences will help others who are doing the same.

Adopt America Network planning November online live auction

Dear Friends:

At Adopt America Network we believe that every child deserves a safe, loving, permanent family and home of his or her own. This foundation is essential to the well-being and mental health of every person.

Adopt America Network (AAN) is dedicated to helping find adoptive families for foster children with special circumstances, whether they have physical challenges, emotional issues or they are older children with siblings. Our placements are even more vital when you consider these small souls are the innocent victims of painful loss, neglect and abuse.

We are hoping you will join us in this journey in CREATING SPECIAL HOMES.

In November 2011 we will be kicking off the first CREATING SPECIAL HOMES live/online auction.

We are simply asking that you create a special home to help us create special homes. Please draw us your best home on the cardstock provided, sign it, fill out the label on the reverse side, and return in the envelope provided. We will then have it matted and include it in an auction to raise money to help us create more special homes for foster children waiting for adoptive families. Should you want to also donate other special items to be included in the auction we would be thrilled. We are asking that all items be sent to us by October 1, 2011.

It is our hope, that with your help, we can provide even more homes for our special children. Over 87% of AAN’s income goes directly to program costs so you can be sure that the money raised will be used wisely.

If you have any questions, please call our Family Outreach Coordinator, Charlene Rook at
1-800-246-1731 (ext.44) or email her at Char@adoptamericanetwork.org.

Thank you for your help,

Wendy Spoerl, President
Adopt America Network
