Finding Friday: Project Snuggle





I stumbled upon this charity while doing some searching for articles for the blog. This text comes from the Project Cuddle web site.

Project Cuddle® is a nonprofit organization that operates a 24-hour, 7-day a week crisis hotline that works as a search and rescue program.

We search out safe and legal alternatives for women that are contemplating abandoning or dumping their babies.

We work with volunteers to rescue newborns and infants from abandonment. We do not discriminate against anyone who is willing to rescue a baby. Project Cuddle® is a non-profit charity and charges nothing to the girls in need or the Rescue families. The adoption process can cost between $10,000 and $30,000, but Project Cuddle® charges nothing.

You can apply to a "Rescue Family" for these newborns and infants. To apply you need a copy of your current homestudy, a letter to the birthmother, 3x5 family photo, and the 3 page application. Go to this address for the application and for more information about the required paperwork and their process: http://www.projectcuddle.org/rescuefamily.asp

Disclaimer: This organization receives volumes of applications from adoptive couples so the wait could be very long. Also, you will still need an agency/attorney to complete the adoption.
