Family Testimonials

“I literally felt the layers of stress fall off of me. I ‘Hakuna-Matata-ed’ all week because everything was taken care of.”

  • Adoptive Mom, Laura D.

Through the support of our generous donors, we have hosted five Funding Love Adoptive Family Vacations that sent ten adoptive families on all-inclusive Walt Disney World vacations to strengthen bonds, build community, and leave feeling restored. We have been blown away by the stories that our Funding Love Families have shared, proving that your giving dollars are going to so much more than just a vacation - they are impacting lives.

More Words from Adoptive families

“When you foster and adopt a child from a hard place, trauma and it's effects are everywhere in the life of that child. They typically had to grow up too soon and many times skipped periods of childhood altogether. At Disney, I truly believe that we all get a little younger for a short period of time. We act a little sillier, linger a little longer, and adventure together. There are these moments- when you see the small child come out from inside of that child who grew up too soon. Moments when they don't feel the weight of all the trauma because they somehow forgot it for just a few moments. And those moments of happiness, of new memories; those memories are now attached to you and you bond a little more as a family. And you believe and hope that one day, those core memories of the happy times as a family will outnumber the traumatic ones and that healing will begin to occur. We are so thankful that we get to experience Disney as a family and want others to as well." - Julie Lindeman, Foster/Adoptive Mom
