You Don't Have to Adopt to Give a Child a Family! 💜

Gift of Adoption Massachusetts is expanding its all-volunteer chapter board in Boston, and we're looking for passionate, self-starting individuals who are ready to roll up their sleeves and help children in vulnerable circumstances come home to permanent, loving families.

Like all GOA chapters, the Massachusetts chapter is run by local volunteer leaders. 100% of the funds raised by the team stay local and are used for adoption assistance awards, helping remove the financial barriers that can stand between children and the families in MA who are ready to welcome them home.

Are you?
- Organized and accountable
- Goal-oriented and proactive
- Passionate about making a difference in children's lives by moving them from instability and uncertainly to permanent homes
- Willing to take an active, front-line role in fundraising and community engagement

This is a hands-on volunteer role. If you're looking for a meaningful way to use your skills, network, and energy to help build families, we'd love to connect.

Interested in learning more about serving on the Massachusetts chapter board?

Together, we can help make it possible for more children to unite with loving, stable and safe families. 💜

As the leaves change and a new season begins, we’re celebrating a very special new chapter for sisters Kamah and Bendu. 🍂

After nearly four years in the international adoption process, their parents Betsy and Gordon finally welcomed the sisters home from Liberia in 2025. Along the way, monthly FaceTime calls helped them build a connection while they prepared their daughters’ rooms and dreamed of the day they could all be together.

A Gift of Adoption grant through the Carolinas Chapter helped support their adoption journey. This fall, we’re grateful for stories like theirs, and for the families, donors, and volunteers who help make new beginnings possible.

Mariah is a 16-year-old girl who has found a place to call home with grant family Stephanie and Tim of Michigan. Most teenagers who could benefit from adoption never find a permanent family. Many age out of care altogether without the kind of lasting family connection every young person deserves at any age. A grant from Gift of Adoption Michigan is helping clear the final obstacle standing between Mariah and the permanence she deserves.

The family says Mariah is, “a lovely girl. She finally feels at home and feels accepted for the first time. Mariah is very happy and feels loved. She is excited that she is finally happy and in a place where she feels safe.”

Rhyan was two days old when Meghan got an unexpected call and met her that very same evening. Meghan says, “Rhyan is the most amazing little girl. She is beginning to smile and coo, loves to be held and snuggled, and is a champ at tummy time.”

A grant from Gift of Adoption came at a critical moment and eased Meghan’s financial pressure, allowing her to be more present with Rhyan.

Rhyan was adopted from the U.S. in 2026.

August, who his moms call Gus, was adopted from the U.S. in 2026 by Texas grant family Brittany and Constance.

The family says, “Gus, is a happy, curious baby. He loves whales and always picks the whale card out of his high contrast card set during tummy time. Bath time is a big hit as well. He is best friends with our mini dachshund, who has followed him everywhere from the minute we brought him home. They cuddle together and she is currently trying to teach him to play ball."

A grant from Gift of Adoption helped Brittany and Constance give August the stable, loving start he needs.

“Our sweet little Holland has already had so much growth since we picked him up and since we have been home. His balance is more stable, his speech has begun to develop, his bond with his siblings has grown, his love for animals is still growing! He absolutely wonderful and we couldn’t love him anymore! We are just so grateful that there are such generous people and groups of people that do so much good with their money. We want them to know that this grant was such a blessing to receive, and we are forever grateful that their hearts had the calling to help adoptive families with the financial burden that adoption can bring. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

May is National Foster Care Month. 💜

Foster care provides critical safety and support for children during times of crisis—and for many children, adoption becomes the pathway to lasting stability and connection.

This month, join us in helping remove the financial barriers that can stand between children and permanency. Your support helps complete adoptions for children in vulnerable circumstances, including older youth, sibling groups, and children with medical or special needs.

Together, we can help more children move from waiting to belonging.
