Patiently Waiting

Supporting you through the journey!

Who We Are.  Patiently Waiting is a 100% volunteer run 501c3. We are here to support those going through loss, infertility, adoption and foster care. Founded in 2006 as a small support group. Over the years has grown into a non-profit organization which was established in 2014

Mission.  Our mission is to share resources, information and provide support for families in our community.

Vision. Finding joy and support through the journey as you grow and strengthen your family. 

What We Do. Patiently Waiting provides resources and support through online and in person meetings and events.  One of our favorite events to host are retreats. Our annual women's retreat is held in the spring of each year. NEW: The Family Fund. This specific fund has been created to provide more opportunities to strengthen and support families in our community. This program will provide grant and scholarship opportunities for kids, teens and families to receive additional resources and support.

Adoption Grants.  Patiently Waiting is proud to be partnering with the Adoption is Love Fund since 2022 Together, we are offering grants to qualified families to help cover adoption expenses. Interested in learning more?  Details and application can be found at www.adoptionislovefund.org  

Support/ Care Baskets.  Patiently Waiting recently started a support and care basket program. This program will provide gift baskets to people who have experienced a recent loss or crisis.  We will be taking nominations. For details please email kari@patientlywaiting.org.

Thank you.  We are building a community for Minnesota families in need of support as they face the troubled waters of loss or as they walk the path of infertility, adoption or foster care.  You are not alone!
