"Adoption is a ministry to effect future generations...and Lifesong's Adoption Grant, and Church Adoption Fund programs are fantastic resources for how God could provide for your adoption financial needs..." — Howard Dayton, Co-Founder, Crown Financial Ministries

Adoption Grants & Loans

Adoption is our ultimate goal in caring for orphan children as it enables them to become a part of God's perfect plan…a family. While many Christian families have the desire and resources to care for a child, initial costs keep many from following God's call to adopt.

Please note that in order to comply with IRS guidelines and ECFA best practice, we must receive the completed application before the placement of a child in your home.

Lifesong Legacy Fund

Interest Free Loans

The Lifesong Legacy Fund offers interest free loans to help families overcome the high cost of adoption. For donors, the Legacy Fund is a gift that keeps on giving. As the loans are repaid, new family needs are met...creating a self-perpetuating fund.

• Families enter into a covenant agreement to repay the loan through manageable monthly or annual payments.
• Families may utilize the Federal Adoption Tax Credit (of up to $13,170 per child) to support their loan payments.
  
  Key Strategy -- Funds become 'self-perpetuating', where loan repayments each month are recirculated to help meet current needs of new adopting families
  

Matching Grants

Lifesong offers matching grants (range from $2,000-$4,000), which encourage the adopting couple's church family to financially and prayerfully support the adoption.

• Dollar-for dollar matching grants act as catalysts in raising funds.
• Involving the local church creates a lifelong bond between the church family and the adopted child.
  
  Key Strategy -- Catalytic tool that mobilizes & engages the Body of Christ, leveraging funds to help bridge the financial gap

*At this time, Lifesong is unable to provide financial assistance to families that already have the child/children placed in their home for the adoption in which they are seeking financial assistance.
