Have you been wanting to donate to help bring Ryder and Elijah home, but haven't yet? Have you always had (or even just recently had) a special place in your heart for the orphan? Have you wondered what you could do to look after orphans in their distress? Would you like to save 2 boys from a life destined to an institution and instead bring them home to their forever families who love them and desperately want them? Do you like winning great prizes? Well, than this giveaway is for you.


Together, both families still need to raise a total of $34,000 (about $17,000 each).

They will be leaving in about 4 weeks to bring their boys home and need to raise the funds by then.


Yes, that is a whole lot of money. BUT, there is not a price tag on a child's life! Yes, that is a lot of money, but these boys are WORTH it! Yes, it is a lot of money, but NOTHING is too hard for our God.

                     
                                             Ryder                                            Elijah (Walden)

We have 30 GREAT prizes, which gives you 30 chances to win something great while at the same time helping 2 families bring their boys home. Two boys who will be not only be cousins, but great friends. So, this is how it works. The giveaway will  end on Monday, September 3rd (which happens to be Ryder's Mommy's birthday). When the giveaway ends, we will be drawing 30 names. The first person drawn will have 1st choice of all of the prizes, the second person drawn will have their choice of the remaining prizes, and so on down the list. So, you will have 30 chances to win something great, but best of all, you will be helping to make 2 boys orphans no more!

You can donate to the chip-in found on the bottom of this page. All of the money raised will be split right down the middle between the 2 families. Here is the breakdown of the number of entries per donation:
