Show Hope, a nonprofit orphan care ministry founded by GRAMMY award-winning artist Steven Curtis Chapman and his wife Mary Beth, will be celebrating this Christmas season with the "Gift of Hope" campaign. The campaign encourages everyone to do something different this Christmas by ending the year with a life-changing gift.
By committing to the "Gift of Hope" campaign, you can help hundreds of waiting children find their forever families. Each year, thousands of families who want to give an orphan a loving home are unable to do so becasue the costs involved in the adoption process are so tremendously high (averages are from $25,000 to $45,000 per adoption). Approximately 1,000 families apply annually to Show Hope for adoption assistance. Show Hope Adoption Aid grants have made it possible for more than 4,000 children to come into forever families through adoption.
Your gift can also provide urgent medical care through Show Hope's Special Care Centers in China by meeting other immediate needs including food, shelter, surgeries or even diapers. Sponsors help support the care these children receive, and to date more than 1,000 orphans with special needs have received life-giving care through these centers.
