Raising Money For Special Needs Adoption Expenses



Artsfish Design Studio - Handcrafted artisan gemstone jewelry - Raising $ for special needs adoption expenses

Our 2 special needs adoptions (one completed, one in process) have incurred a debt near $30,000.

Ouch. Unfortunately, grants assisting couples in adopting special needs kids are virtually nonexistent, so we are using all our talents to generate the funds to pay back our expenses.

Many families have fund raisers or bake sales. Since I'm a professional artist, artisan and designer, (and can't bake or cook anything that anyone would pay money for), we are selling our fine handcrafted gemstone artisan jewelry created by me, Cherie, a.k.a. Mama!

Artsfish Design Studio jewelry is heirloom quality gemstone jewelry handcrafted from precious metals and unique materials such as Balinese, Hilltribe, African, Ancient Roman & Tibetan beads. Each piece is eclectic and unique.

I've created an online shop at http://www.artsfish.com to help us give our kids a chance at a brighter future. My blog, The Artsfish Salon (http://www.artsfish.com/Salon) is an extension of our online shop.

Our kids had a rough start in life, they were each abandoned in China due to a correctable congenital condition called clubfoot. We're dedicated to giving them the best life possible, but in order to do that, we need to reduce or pay off our debt. I'm also available for graphic and web design.
