We just always worked it in to any conversation - just saying we're planning on adopting, but it might take a few years to get the $$. At church, our Bishop and RS president just happened to also mention it in opening exercises. My mom also talks a lot, so all our relatives knew within a few days. We have a few ideas of who it came from, (both in our neighborhood and in the family) but noone will fess up. We were a little hesitant at first to let "the world" know our financial situation, but it is for a great cause, and it was well worth it. We just picked up our daughter from the Philippines three weeks ago, and we're are in deed grateful to whomever it was!! She is so fun, cute, and wonderful to have here with us! Good luck to all, and I've heard giant yard sales work well too - with people donating their stuff for you to sell too.
