Funds Vs. Expenses

We just paid out the biggest chunk we have had to do so far for processing fees.  This has brought our expenses to date very close to our total adoption fund.  I just want to make it clear, the thermometer is not a pot of money sitting around, it included money that we have already spent.  We do have some money in our separated personal accounts waiting to be transferred over, but we are waiting to see how much it is going to take to fix our roof before doing so. 

If you are at all considering helping us out there are several ways you can do so:
  • Donating to our fund on Reece's Rainbow - you can use the link on the banner to the right or mail a check to:
    • Reece’s Rainbow
      PO Box 4024
      Gaithersburg, MD 20885 
    • Make sure you indicate the check is for Kellin Kehoe if you do it this way.
  • If you live in the Grand Forks Area, Ferguson Books and Media is putting on a used book sale for us sometime this summer, more details to come.
  • If you live in the Mankato Area, you can be sure to come out to the Pizza Ranch this fall for our fundraiser night - more details to be shared at a later date.
And again on our own we are cutting back our own spending on non-essentials like going out to eat, we have not gone out to a restaurant  since we started the process.  So at the end of each month whatever money we have left unspent goes into the adoption fund.  Also money that we make beyond our normal teaching contract is all going to the adoption fund as well.

We really appreciate all the help we have already received from family members, friends, and people we don't even know!  It is amazing the out-pouring of support that has been given to help us get Kellin home!
