Dear ARK Friends,
Adoption ARK needs your help. The orphanage we sponsor in Africa has an urgent request for diapers and formula. Each month, these items are a major expense for the ARK of Hope Foster Home because they are very costly to buy in Africa. In addition, infant formula is not the same nutritional standard that is required to be sold in the United States. Typically, the standard for care in an orphanage is very low but, at the ARK of Hope, Adoption ARK desperately wants to provide these children with the best available. For that, we need your help.
Adoption ARK has a special section in the ARK Bookstore on Amazon. This section, entitled Humanitarian Needs, contains the infant formula and diapers that are needed for the orphanage. We need diapers in sizes 1-3 and good quality infant formula that is lactose free. There is the option to purchase a case of formula or a single can. Please help Adoption ARK purchase these items for the kids at ARK of Hope. To order:
1. Visit the store at http://astore.amazon.com/specialneedsa-20?_encoding=UTF8&node=16
2. Add your donation to your Amazon cart and proceed to checkout
3. In the top section, entitled ship to, click change address
4. Add Adoption ARK’s address to your Amazon address book.
Adoption ARK
830 Buffalo Grove Road
Buffalo Grove, IL 60089
5. Choose “ship to this address”. This will take you back to your order and Adoption ARK’s address should show up in the top section.
6. After entering your payment method, click the “place your order” button in the bottom right corner.
It’s that simple. Your donation will be sent to Adoption ARK’s office and then sent to the ARK of Hope with the parents that are traveling to complete their adoption. If you would prefer not to use Amazon but would like to contribute, simply purchase your items at the local grocery store and mail them to the address above. In addition, monetary donations can be made online at Adoption ARK's Donation Page. Any help, through donation of products or online giving, is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Adoption ARK Team
