Doing What is Right
The Hug Away Foundation was founded with a desire to help families with some of the financial obstacles of adoption, help those chilren who will not be adopted or whose families are unable to take care of them.
Hi my name is Elaine Bayer and my husband Mike and I are the founders of Hug Away. When we adopted our daughters money was a huge issue. We had no doubt since God called us to do adopt that He would provide. One of the ways he provided was through grants. Through the generosity of others we were able to bring our daughters home. When one of the grants took us over the amount we needed we donated it back. I believe that is when the seed for Hug Away was planted.
In our travels to S. Korea, Vietnam and Venezuela we have looked into the eyes of children who will not be adopted or have parents who can not take care of them. It broke our hearts. They are innocent and have no voice in their situation. So we hope with prayers and your help that we can be their voice and give them hope.
