Dear Sponsors, Golfers, Volunteers, and Adoption Resource Foundation Supporters,   First off, Thank you for supporting the Adoption Resource Foundation!  This 16th year our Golf Tournament will be Monday, June 14, 2021, at Lakewood Oaks Golf Club in Lee’s Summit.  Registration/Breakfast begins at 7:30 and Shot-gun Start at 9:00 AM!  It is will be an Amazing Day playing golf and celebrating the past, present, and future adoptions ARF will help!

It all started back in 2000 when a team of people from Woods Chapel Church went to Russia in search of an orphanage our church could sponsor in hopes of helping just a few of Russia’s 6 million orphans. We found an orphanage in Korlova where we were able to help 13 of the children find their forever homes here in America. Several of these children were adopted by church families here in Lee’s Summit and we have been able to see these children grow into awesome adults, graduating college and creating a great life for themselves!

In 2004 an idea surfaced to start an adoption foundation in Lee’s Summit. We wanted to help families finance adoptions for children here in our area, as well as all over the world. On the very day we developed the “Woods Chapel UMC Adoption Foundation” the board was filled with experts in every position. And so our dream of helping these children find their forever homes began and since this time we have helped over 250 families with their adoptions.

 For the past 16 years, the foundation has hosted a golf tournament to help raise funds to give grants to these families for their adoption expenses. We have also been able to give book awards to adopted children going to college. We have seen a lot of these kids at our tourney every year and they continue to help us give back to other kids who are in search of a loving forever family. It is such a blessing to hear the stories and help all of these children and families find each other.

This 16th year our GOAL is $65,000. Last year’s theme was such a success that we decided to continue it to 2021.  Our THEME is "FUNDING THE NEED" which means FUNDING ONE FULL ADOPTION ($30,000) IN 2021!  This theme continues to carry out a long-term vision of the Adoption Resource Foundation Board.
