About The Bridge Family
Clayton & Jordyn
Hi there! We are Clayton and Jordyn Bridge! In August, we’ll be married for a whopping 12 years! Clayton is a software engineer and entrepreneur and Jordyn is a freelance artist. In 2017, we graduated A&M, left College Station, TX and have been pursuing entrepreneurial dreams in Dallas ever since.
In June 2023, we decided it was time to pursue another dream. It was time to grow our family through adoption. International adoption is ‘Plan A’ for us and has been on our hearts for many years. After we found out about the Taiwan adoption program through The Gladney Center for Adoption, we were hooked and we haven’t looked back since! As we’ve been going through the lengthy adoption process, we’ve eagerly started learning more about Taiwanese culture, how to be [hopefully] great parents, and are now on day 450 of a Duolingo Mandarin Chinese streak. Jiāyóu (Let’s go)!
On November 20, 2024, (Jordyn’s birthday), we were matched with two little girls! It was the sweetest birthday present!
The oldest sister is 8 years old and so friendly! She loves to meet new people and play with friends. She also loves crafts and particularly loves sculpting with clay or building 3-dimensional things with paper. She feels things deeply and has so much compassion.
The younger sister is 7 years old, strong, and independent! She is strong-willed, loves very active play and to joke around. She often shows her affection through fun-loving play! She’s excellent at sports and is very adventurous! We adore her spirit!
The girls love to play together and are always giggling! They are two outgoing and happy little girls. We are absolutely smitten and can’t wait to bring them home closer to the end of 2025!
We’re excited to be this far into the process! Any financial support would be such a blessing to us!

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.
