March Fundraising - the Lanz Family
Please help me welcome the Lanz family to Owls for
Orphans!
Randi and Ethan are parents to eight children and are
excited to be adding two more to their family this spring! They are working hard to raise the money to
bring home two sweet girls from Asia. To
read more about the Lanz’s please visit their blog: http://lanzadoptionadventure.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html They have an amazing story that you don’t
want to miss!
If you would like to help support Randi and Ethan as they
adopt their daughters you can do so by visiting their blog and donating through
the link on their sidebar, or you can order a custom owl (or two!) from Owls
for Orphans. 50% of each sale will be
sent to the Lanz’s for their adoption. Owls
make great gifts for children and adults alike!
Feel free to look around the site to get an idea of colors and
sizes. Please also take note of the
following before you place your order:
1. Owls
are made on a custom order basis. Each owl is handmade in a smoke free home. Because of the nature of crochet, no two owls
will be exactly alike. You can take
pride in knowing your owl is one of a kind!
Each owl comes with a special card explaining the purpose of Owls for
Orphans and the significance behind the owl.
2. To
order, email Amy at owlsfororphans@gmail.com with
the size and colors you would like. Please visit the gallery page for
color inspiration. To read about owl
sizes, click on the “Order an Owl” tab at the top of the page.
3. After
verifying your order and discussing any changes, shipping, etc, I will send you
a PayPal invoice. After receiving payment I will begin working on your
order.
4.
When you order please specify that
you want your purchase applied to the Lanz Family. If no family is
specified, the money will be split equally between the Lanz’s and the Jensen’s.

Owls for Orphans: The Rylands Family
I am so excited to introduce you to the Rylands family! I first met Angie earlier this year as Craig and I began to consider adoption. As the director of the Lifeline office here in Charleston, she was able to answer a lot of our questions about adoption. She has since become a great friend and someone I look up to immensely.
Angie and Tom have three children: Colin, Cameron, and Tommy. Colin and Cameron were recently adopted from China. Angie and Tom are now in the process of bringing home two more boys from China. They still need around 20k dollars before the process is over and are running out of time.
For the month of January you will be able to help The Rylands through Owls for Orphans. When you order an owl (or multiple owls) a portion of the sale will be set aside for the Rylands. I keep a small portion to cover the cost of materials and everything else will go to them! Simply mention their name when you order so that I can be sure the money is credited to them. On February 1st I will send a check to their agency with all of the January proceeds from this fundraiser. Let's help them get these boys home!
To order owls just click the Order tab at the top of the page. Or send an email to Amy at owlsfororphans (at) gmail (dot) com.
A small disclaimer: we are working on owls for a big project at the end of January, so I don't have any pre-made owls ready. I always take custom orders but wait time for owls is about 4 weeks right now rather than the usual 2. However, I can rush an order if necessary, so send me an email and we can chat!
Please feel free to share this link on Facebook, blogs, email, etc to help share the Rylands story and raise money for them! If you have a blog you can use the following button in your sidebar - just be sure it links back here!
