Help Bring an Orphan Home!
The Mom Crowd is honored to be hosting a very exciting raffle! One of our sponsors, Bethany from The Polkadot Platypus, is in the process of adopting a little girl from Russia who has Down syndrome. Bethany and her husband will be traveling to meet their daughter within the next couple of weeks and will hopefully bring her home soon after that. As most know, adoptions are very expensive. We are hoping that this raffle will help raise funds to help with their substantial adoption costs.
As a way to thank you for your support of this great cause, we have over $2,000 worth of prizes to give away {see the slideshow below}. Each raffle ticket purchased will enter you into a drawing for all of the wonderful prizes pictured below. Raffle tickets are $5.00 each and the more raffle tickets you purchase, the more chances you will have to win these great prizes! We will be closing this raffle on Saturday, September 27th at midnight EST and will be announcing the winners on Monday, September 29th, 2008.
You can follow the Balsis’ adoption journey by visiting their blog: www.dreamingonanangel.blogspot.com
Don’t miss out on your chance to win one of these great prizes!
