Many Ways to Lend a Hand

* Pray for our child in China, our children at home, our process, the financial aspect, etc.

* Tax-deductible contribution to our adoption agency

* Donate an electronic item, themed basket, or gift card we could use in a silent auction

* Donate postage so we can send sponsor letters

* Pass the word on to anyone you think may want to help!  :)

* Participate in one of fundraisers (and there will be many!)
   Here is what we have scheduled so far:
   TEES - We placed our final order on tees, but we ordered extra in various sizes.
   BRACELETS - We have plenty of bracelets left, $3 or $3.50 mailed to you.
   BOOKMARKS - Grace wanted to help, so she designed bookmarks she is selling for $1!
   ORIGAMI OWL PARTY - a sweet friend, Amy Boswell, got together with her friend who is a
      consultant for Origami Owl and is hosting a party where a portion of the funds will go to our
      adoption expenses!  June 20th is the party date, and you can order online at 
      www.samanthameadows.origamiowl.com   When you check-out, there is a drop-down box
      under "Jewelry Bar" that says "Fundraising Party - for the Hudson's" (#162812).  Make sure you
      select it!
   YARD SALE - if you have items you would like to donate, we'll arrange pick-up.  You can also
      attend the sale, which will be held at Macedonia Baptist Church in Owensboro, Kentucky
      sometime in late August.  (We will update when we have the date for sure.)
   CHRISTMAS EXTRAVAGANZA - November 2nd we'll be having a shoppers dream!  We hope
      to have 5 - 10 direct sales companies (like Thirty-One at www.thirtyonegifts.com) who will
      have tables all at one location, Macedonia Baptist.  You'll be able to visit all the different products
      at once while a portion of proceeds benefit our adoption!  Thanks to Amy Bellamy and Brittany
      Zik, Thirty-One consultants, for their support and help in this venture!!
