Information About For This Child

While demonstrating financial need is required, For This Child Foundation for Adoption will review a family’s entire profile when evaluating for grant awards. Annual income alone is not a sole determination for financial need and will not disqualify a family from receiving our grant. Please make sure to provide any additional information that would be helpful to our organization when making a decision on your grant application.

Because funding is limited, our founding values prioritize award grants that:

  • Prevent the permanent institutionalization of a child with special needs
  • Finalize the placement of a child whose medical needs will not be met until they come home
  • Prevent the separation of biological siblings
  • Prevent a child from “aging out” of orphanage care
