About The Acree Family
Joshua & Jessica
Our names are Josh and Jessica Acree. We have three wonderful daughters. We are trying to grow our family! We’ve been working diligently toward an adoption since January of 2020. We have incurred several bumps in the road, including a change in home study agency, countless fingerprinting, immigration renewals, and endless paperwork. This has taken what we were told would be an 18-month journey to an almost 5 year trek.
We know the Lord has been in it and is teaching us through our waiting. We can see the good, even in the hard, but we are so ready to bring home our son. We’ve been given this wonderful opportunity of receiving this grant, which will help us complete our adoption.
The sweet boy we are pursuing is 7 years old and lives in a Colombian orphanage. He is full of smiles and laughter and likes ice cream, which we think will pair very well with our family. he has several physical special needs and will require multiple surgical procedures and therapies.

What is a Brittany's Hope Adoption Grant?
Brittany’s Hope believes in the fundamental right of all children to have the security and love of a family. There are an estimated 153 million orphans living around the world (UNICEF – 02/2011). These staggering statistics are heartbreaking considering a large number of these children are special needs, who have little or no value in the eyes of their own country. They are left to languish in institutions, where they receive minimal care and live hopeless, helpless lives.
The cost of international adoption can be overwhelming and is only further compounded by the medical and accessibility costs a child with special needs presents. Our Adoption Grant Program provides grant monies while giving families the opportunity to assist Brittany’s Hope in raising funds so the next child may also be united with their forever family. The phrase “It takes a village to raise a child,” takes on new meaning as the “seeds” of the adoptive family’s friends, family and neighbors take root and help provide future families with adoption grants. With a gift to Brittany’s Hope, a donor’s monetary support of the Adoption Grant Program means double for the adoptive family.
