Receive Text UpdatesMatthew has the most curious and joyful spirit. We adopted him at 3 months old and knew right away he was something special. Now 3, he seems older thanks to his two big sisters. He shares everything, loves to make others laugh, and finds joy in the simplest moments. He’s fiercely independent—often yelling, “I do it all my byself !”—but still looks to me for reassurance. His heart is big, his laughter contagious, and his presence a daily gift. That’s Matthew,sharing joy is what makes him happiest
What are Matthew's favorite activities?Matthew has the biggest heart &most adventurous spirit. He loves all things dinosaurs, anything messy, &sneaking into his sisters’ rooms just to get a reaction &make them chase him around the house with giggles &squeals He finds joy in the simple things like trips to the zoo, running wild at the park, swimming until he’s wrinkled, &snuggling on the couch.When we asked Matthew what he wanted to do for his birthday,he didn’t ask for toys or a party, he said go to daycare and play with his friends.
How would $25,000 impact your family?$25,000 would bring stability, hope, &a chance to breathe again. Life has felt like a constant balancing act, trying to make ends meet while still giving my children the love, support, and opportunities they deserve. This kind of blessing would help me catch up on bills, relieve daily stress, & allow me to focus more on what truly matters, spending time together, making memories, &planning for a better future. It would bring a sense of peace we haven’t felt in a long time. Good things can happen
