BraveLove‘s goal is to show how adoption is an amazing act of love and courage. Our mission is to change the perception of adoption through honest, informative, and hopeful communication that conveys the heroism and bravery a birth mother displays when she places her child with a loving family through adoption.
As an act of our love and encouragement toward the heroic birth mothers we celebrate and the amazing families called to welcome these children into their hearts and homes, we set up this fund to help ease the financial burden that families face with adoption. Part of the legacy of the BraveLove movement will be not only celebrating the bravery of birth mothers, but helping to ensure that their children are cared for in loving, nurturing Christian family environments.

In addition to exploring our fund and considering giving to and being part of helping families adopt, we hope you’ll also use the links below to explore the day-to-day work of BraveLove. The heartbreaking truth is that many women facing unplanned pregnancy feel unable to care for a child. Sometimes the single-most loving thing a mother can do is place her child with a loving, eager adoptive family. We aim to invite and empower women to choose adoption for their child.

**AN IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION FROM ABBA FUND ABOUT YOUR DONATION**
Using the online form on this page automatically submits a request to preference your gift to the family profiled on this page as part of ABBA Fund’s Christian Family Adoption Grant Fund. ABBA Fund administers this fund and maintains full control and administration of all donated funds. We also strive to honor our donor’s preference requests in accordance with IRS and Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) guidelines.
The IRS allows donors to state a preference of how their contribution is used and request that the gift support a particular family — and it allows the charitable organization (ABBA Fund) to fully consider that request as long as the donor understands and acknowledges for charitably given tax-deductible gifts that the ultimate authority regarding the disposition of your gift is at the discretion of the charitable organization. By using this online form, or other method described above, you are acknowledging an understanding of those IRS guidelines.
