Sources for funding our adoption
My husband and I are in the research phase of considering adopting a child from Guatemala. One of our obstacles is the enormous cost, as I'm sure you all know. I had heard that there were sources available to assist with some of the costs and have done a good deal of research on-line. I am finding that much of the assistace is given through ministries, which I assume would leave us out as we plan to raise our child Jewish, although we are a mixed-faith couple. My husband's company may offer some assistance, but we are still checking on that. Does anyone have any sources of funding for a Jewish/Mixed-Faith family hoping to adopt? Thank you for your help.

Not unless you are in CA! I have done SO many online searches and gotten nowhere. But in all my looking there seem to be so many avenues for grants, etc for international adoption- keep looking and ask the ministry ones if you can be considered- don't just skip over them for that reason alone!

Try the Hebrew Loan Society--call your local Jewish agency to find out more.

I think Hebrew Free Loan is only like $1000 max, but every bit does help!
Many of the organizations that seem Christian do not discriminate on the basis of religion - my first agency was Baptist and I'm Jewish! Melissa =)

I checked out this site and it's for sudents. How do you get a loan for adoption?

Sometimes your local Jewish Federation or Jewish Family and Vocational Services will either have funding or be able to point you in the right direction based on availability in your area. Good luck!

In Los Angeles, JFL (Jewish Free Loans) offers up tp $10,000 - interest free. You pay it back over 5 years. Hope this helps.
