"Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it. My optimism, then, does not rest on the absence of evil, but on a glad belief in the preponderance of good and willing effort always to cooperate with the good, that it may prevail." -Helen Keller

Thank You
I just got home from the grocery store to find a letter in my mailbox. There was no return address, and only a small note inside that said, "Here is a little something to help with Arnold's adoption. Best Regards." There was a $20.00 bill with the note. I just want this person to know that $20.00 is not "a little" something. It is a grand something. It is a gesture that means so much to us. It is proof that there are people out there who want to see not only the life of Arnold changed forever for the good, but the lives of other orphans in his same situation. I am just so humbled by the goodness of others. We can feel your prayers and good wishes, we really can. So thank you, all of you, for your support.

Becky, is there a preferred way to donate? Is it better to go through the website or is it better to donate directly to you, or what?
ReplyDeleteHi Mom! Either way is great. If you donate through Reece's Rainbow (by clicking on Arnold's photo on the right side of the blog), you can make a tax-deductible donation. If you donate on the "chip-in", it isn't tax-deductible, but we can access the money at any time (the money donated through Reece's Rainbow isn't available until we get our first travel date).
ReplyDeleteThanks Becky.
