About The Lefkof Family
Nadine
I am a single mom to three awesome kids who range in age from 16-24. My older kids are in college on the East Coast, and my youngest is a junior in high school. I am a hockey, theater, and cheer mom and there isn’t anything I love to do more than watching my kids play and perform.
I work as a registered nurse in the pediatric ICU and am also in school at Texas Christian University to become a mental health Nurse Practitioner. My passion is working with adolescents and teens who struggle with mental health issues. The child I am adopting is an 11-year-old boy from South Africa who likes the color blue and loves to play soccer. Our whole family is so excited to be finally preparing to bring him home!

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.
