Hi Friends! It's Sarah here, hijacking the Spitz Blog :) 

Summer and Dave have some upfront costs that they're in need of quickly for Lyla's adoption. 

Their home study is COMPLETE and that means we have to rally for this sweet family! Lyla's Reece's Rainbow FSP account is growing rapidly! However, those funds are not released to the family until they are ready to travel, so that money can't be used toward the initial fees. 

So we're throwing them a PAPER BABY SHOWER!!

This is how it works:

I will list some of their upfront costs and you can "buy" a gift for their shower by choosing an item off of their "registry" below. For some of the larger fees, of course you'd be welcome to buy the entire gift yourself, but if you'd like, you could also contribute a smaller amount toward that gift. We all love going in on gifts for showers, there is nothing more exciting than watching the guest of honor open their BIG gift! The Spitz's big gift is their USCIS fee of $720, which they are in need of quickly!

Since this is a baby shower, and these are "gifts," your donation will NOT be tax deductible. It will be a gift directly to the Spitz Family.  The amounts you donate do not go toward THIS FUNDRAISER, just to be clear; this is a separate fundraiser for the Spitz family. 

When you decide what item you'd like to "buy" or "contribute to" please use the chip-in button at the bottom of this post or on the sidebar of the blog to make your donation. After you've done so, please leave a comment letting me know what gift you've bought and what amount you've donated. If you'd like your comment to remain anonymous, please let me know. Summer WILL NOT be checking this post, promise! Thank you for showing your love to this beautiful family! They are grateful for your support and friendship!

*If the chip in doesn't update right away, don't worry. It will update on the chip in site right away, but may take an hour to update on the blog :)
