Grant #1

 I applied for two grants. I heard back on one of them today.

"Thank you for applying for a grant from Helpusadopt.org.

We received an overwhelming response to our call for applications and had a limited amount of funds to disperse. Unfortunately, we are not able to grant your request.

This grant cycle we received 380 applications with financial requests approximating $3 million dollars.  We had $100,000 to award.

Though we understand that it is no consolation for the disappointment you must feel at receiving this news, please know that we are actively working to increase the amount of funds we can grant in the future. Our commitment to helping families grow through adoption only becomes stronger with each letter like this that we must send.

We sincerely wish you all the best as you continue your adoption journey".
