Friends & Family -

We hope you're well and excited to hear news from 2 new families who your financial support has helped return to the adoption process. We are so thankful for your generous donations during our matching campaign in November / December aiding in a placement for one of these families! If you're interested in getting this newsletter via email, please join our mailing list.



Our Families:

We continue to keep up with Stephanie & Joseph, Jill & Charlie,  Brooke & Mathew, Brianna & Tyler, Jessica & Chris, and Caryn & Sam. All of their babies are healthy and thriving!


We also have wonderful news to share from Nicole & Eric. Your support helped them with the adoption of their son Tamin last September, but in December they were fortunate enough to welcome another baby into their family. While life is certainly busy for them these days, we couldn't be happier for them after having endured 5 disrupted matches throughout their adoption journey.



"We were blessed beyond measure back in the beautiful mountains! Meet Tinsley Anaiah. She is doing great and big brother adores her! Our family is complete. God is so so good!"


We'd also like to introduce you to 2 new families! Abby & Josh experienced a disrupted match last summer but thanks in part to your generosity were able to welcome Oliver in December. We ask for your continued prayers as they await finalization. To learn more about their story and what your support as meant to them, please visit their post on our blog.



"Our adoption journey was emotionally and spiritually challenging. But we now have the miracle of our sweet little boy thanks in part to the Disruptive Hope Fund. He is starting to coo and 'talk', smile, and is a very chill baby overall. We are honored to get to raise him and call him ours. We are so thankful for the part this organization played in bringing him home."


We'd also like to introduce you to Naomi and Zach. They have been married for over 6 years and have been blessed with an adorable 5 year old named Cora Lou! Cora has always desired to have a little sister and practices daily with her baby dolls. For over 4 years, Naomi and Zach have longed to expand their family but experienced 3 difficult and painful miscarriages. They felt led to pursue adoption even before they got married, but it was clear to them this was the best way forward. After being matched in January of 2024 they were elated to welcome another girl, until a disruption happened one week before the due date in June.Thanks to your support they have hope to continue with the adoption process. Please keep them in your thoughts as they wait for another opportunity to grow their family.



"After the disruption we felt helpless to try to pursue another adoption due to financial constraints. But being connected to Disruptive Hope has truly been a door of hope in the midst of a season of despair. We are so incredibly grateful to be given the opportunity to continue in the adoption journey!"

  • +$120,000 in donations

Our Future:


As we look toward what's next for Disruptive Hope, we're always looking for opportunities to share our story, the stories of these families, and find more adoptive families to help. We're learning about the best ways to do this as we go and would love any advice you have to share at disruptive.hope.fund@gmail.com. Thank you all for your continued love and support!


With Love -
