Are you a foster or adoptive parent and live locally? Vineyard Church Glendora is committed to providing support to you and your unique family. Are you wanting to become a foster or adoptive family? Vineyard Church Glendora would love to provide as many resources as are available to help you navigate this complex and overwhelming process.
Adoption Assistance Fund…
Are you seeking a private or international adoption and have no idea how you’re going to raise all of the necessary funds? We want to help! In 2011 Vineyard Church Glendora started the Adoption Assistance Fund in response to a family in their church adopting from Ethiopia. We were able to raise significant funds to help bring their daughter home. We encourage the church and community to not only contribute to this fund, but have also hosted various fundraising events. All contributions are tax-deductible. We are willing to support you in your fundraising efforts! You can also donate to this fund online: HERE
