My friend Erica told me about this puzzle idea she came upon to raise funds for her and her family's adoption. It's a 500 piece puzzle, and they are inviting people to "sponsor" a piece of the puzzle for $10. Then she showed me her puzzle!
Is this not an absolutely beautiful work of art!!?
Now not just because it is a beautiful work...but I am very excited about this fundraising idea for so many reasons:
- On the back of each puzzle piece the name of the sponsor will be permanently written.
- As each piece is sponsored, the Shubin family [6 of them] will put it together - together :)
- Years from now, the newest Shubin at a time when she might be sorting through some of those existential issues all kiddoes go through [more difficult I think for one who is adopted] -- this puzzle will be a visual reminder to her of those who participated in bringing her home. How wonderful is that?!! She will see over 500 names of individuals, families who gladly did so.
- I had medical insurance when I delivered my children, but there is no "adoption insurance" and this simply is a beautiful God honoring fundraising idea that anyone can do.
