The Bethany Children's Fund

A fund that provides financial assistance for families who are adopting and “seed” money to expand Bethany’s global ministry.

Malachi’s Story...
Because of his birthmother’s drug addiction, Malachi was in neo-natal intensive care after his birth. Later that day, the withdrawal began. Malachi’s birthmother had taken heroin and cocaine the night before he was born. After two weeks of round-the-clock care, Malachi came home to his adoptive family.

"Saying ‘thank you’ hardly expresses our gratitude. Thank you for allowing God to bless us through you. Now Malachi is doing great! He is such a joy.”

~ Gregg and Michelle, Adoptive Parents

The Bethany Children’s Fund
Children around the world are waiting to be adopted. The Bethany Children’s Fund is a bridge for these children to many families who would like to adopt, but who struggle with the cost. Created in 1991, The Bethany Children’s Fund is our endowment. Funds are invested to assure that the principal remains intact. Our goal is to grow this fund significantly in the next five years to provide pro-family services–including adoption scholarships–to deserving families.

How The Bethany Children’s Fund Works
The principal amount is invested and combined with gifts given by others. Bethany uses the earnings to support its ministry to children and families.

Gift Examples

Five percent (5%) of the principal in The Bethany Children’s Fund
is used to assist families and to provide funds in support of Bethany’s mission.


There are many creative ways to give to The Bethany Children’s Fund, including gifts of cash or appreciated assets through a Charitable Gift Annuity or Charitable Trust. You may also designate Bethany Christian Services as a charitable beneficiary in your Will.
