A Surprise from an Unexpected Place!

To help offset the approximately $45,000 we are going to need to get Brock home, Reece’s Rainbow sets up funds for each child and their adoptive families for people to donate to. Brocks reached $461 in a short time, which we are so very grateful for!  Every dollar brings our little boy closer to his loving family and further away from a life in an orphanage, or worse yet, an adult mental institution where he would go when he turned 5.

I looked at his fund two days ago, and to my surprise, his fund made an incredible $2000 jump! Wow! I couldn’t imagine where or who it could have came from. Then, I found out, and I was floored! I simply have no words for how blessed we are feeling right now!

The fourth and fifth graders at Haw Creek Elementary in Cumming, Georgia do a fundraiser every year to raise funds to donate to Reece’s Rainbow.  They pick a boy and a girl to donate the money to, and Brock was the boy they chose!  I spoke with the teacher in charge, (I wanted to name her, but wasn’t sure if she would want me too!) to give her a big thank you! She told me that this is something they do every year. She gives the students 3 weeks to raise money. Many parents donate, but some of these kids sell things, have lemonade stands, and even give their birthday money! They raised over $4000 in those three weeks. Simply amazing!

To the students of Haw Creek, you all have literally helped save this little boy from living a lonely life with no Mom or Dad to love him and take care of him. He would have to live his life in an orphanage, most of his time would be spent in a crib, and he would never even have one toy or piece of clothing to call his own! He also would never get the opportunity to get to go to school! You all should be so proud to know how much you have helped to get him home to people who want to be his family and love him forever. We cannot thank you enough! You all are truly amazing kids! I hope you have a great summer!

I also want to say a great big THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart to all the teachers, staff and parents who helped in this effort. You all have truly blessed us and have helped to relieve some of financial worry that comes with this process! I invite you all to follow us in our journey to get our boy home! God bless!
