Meda ase (thank you)

First, I wanted to say Meda ase (thank you in the girl's native language) to everyone for their kind words and prayers. You have no idea how much your words have meant to us. Thank you for all your post, emails, and most of all prayers. We feel truly blessed to have so many great people in our lives and are so excited to have all of you be apart of our daughter's lives as well. 


We have had some people ask how they can help bring our bring them home. Sorry I am a little behind in updating our blog on this. We did have a paypal button on here before but we need to update it now because we have created a separate adoption account and need to figure out how to change that over. For now, if you would like to donate online you can do it through Forever Young Foundation's website at http://www.foreveryoung.org/donations.html. The link is also on the right of our blog if you scroll down you will see the picture. Just click on the link and it will take you right to their donation page on their website. Just make sure and note that it is for the Probst family adoption. They email me every time we get a donation so if you are wondering if your donation went through just shot me your email address and I will confirm. 100% of the donation goes towards our adoption and if you do it through Forever Young it is also tax deductible. 


If you prefer to send a check, you can send it to 1501 E Mineral Rd, Gilbert, AZ 85234. You can either write the check out to Clinton and Calli Probst or Forever Young Foundation and we will deposit the money directly into our adoption account to help us pay for adoption fees, attorneys, and international travel. 


If you are unable to make a monetary gift (and believe me, I completely understand with how tough the economy is right now) perhaps you can help by donating frequent flyer miles, help us with a fundraiser or share any good ideas or talents that might be used for a fundraiser, donate items to be used in online auctions, help share our story by mentioning us (http://ourghanaianfamily.blogspot.com/) on your blog or facebook, I have also created a donation letter if you would like to send it to friends, family or businesses you think might want to contribute, and keep us in your prayers. 


Please feel free to email if you have any questions. We are excited to start our family and can’t wait to send our first family photo to all those who have been apart of this adoption journey with us.
