Hello everyone, After many years of trying to conceive and numerous medical treatments, we realized that our journey to become parents will be different than what we imagined. The heartbreaks we have been through didn't stop us from wanting to be parents; the love we have to give is leading us forward. We both have loved ones in our families that were brought to us through adoption. It's something we already value and see as a good and positive choice. Since God has not brought a child into our lives through the "old-fashioned way," we believe He has a different plan for us. The costs for adoption are immense and we have found it challenging to keep up. We are seeking financial help from anyone and everyone, so we can finally have a baby in our home, in our lives, and in our arms. We sincerely are grateful for any kind of support you are willing to share. God Bless,   Christopher and Elena Hoops

 

Update 5/7/19

We are in Kentucky and we have met our son and we adore him. 

Please pray for his mom and her family and that the transition and legal proceedings smoothly.

UPDATE 5/16/19

We made it home last night. Alexander got to meet his grandma for the first time and the two were in love! We are so grateful for the donations we received so far. Please share our donations page regularly and to as wide of a group you can, so we can meet our expenses.
The amount says $10,000, but in reality, we will be about $35,000 all in. We will need to pay about $21,000 in the next 10 days. So please, donate if you can!


  1. We want to wish a very enthusiastic thank you for those who have donated! We have been live for about 24 hours and so many people have shared the link to social media and have donated as well. We are on our way!!
    Thank you all, very much for sharing this with us.
