Welcome to the official website of the 4th annual Krygiel/Daley adoption challenge!

Inspired by the success of our previous three campaigns, we are once again reaching out to help another family finalize their adoption by sponsoring a grant through the Gift of Adoption Fund. Please consider joining us in this loving and extremely rewarding endeavor.

The Family

Nathan is a two-year-old boy who has spent most of his young life in a Russian orphanage. He suffers from Down Syndrome, a heart defect and a thyroid condition. If not adopted soon, he would be transfered to an institution where his chances of becoming adopted would sadly come to an end.

Randy and Rebecca are a pastor and special needs teacher who have been trying to start a family for more than 8 years. When they began their adoption process they were told their costs would be roughly $30,000. They exhausted their savings, were blessed with generosity from several friends and family, and have done nearly continuous fundraising. But then their costs escalated to $43,000 and they began running out of options.

A $5,000 grant from the Gift of Adoption provided the final funds they needed to prevent their adoption from falling through. The grant will help give Nathan access to early education opportunities, physical therapy and medical treatments that would not be available to him in Russia. Most importantly, it will give Nathan the kind of love and comfort he might otherwise never come to know.

Our Challenge

Our goal this year is to raise $5,000 – enough money to sponsor this entire grant.

We realize this is an aggressive goal. Nevertheless, we are very much inspired to see that this grant gets funded and that Nathan has the opportunity to grow up in a loving home. To make that happen, our family is committing to match all other donations that are made on Nathan’s behalf until we reach our goal. Between your family and ours, we can help ensure that this little boy gets the opportunity he so desperately needs. And as an added kicker, not only are all donations tax-deductible, but 100% of all funds raised through this campaign will go directly to fund the grant for this family.

To become a part of Nathan's adoption, donations can be made directly through this website, or by calling the Gift of Adoption national office at (877) 905-2367.

Thank You

Thank you for joining us in another “adoption challenge.” By making a donation here you will be making a very real, direct and immediate impact on the life and future of this little boy. What a wonderful and amazing gift; one that will last a lifetime.

With hope and in gratitude,
The Krygiel/Daley Family
