Many area churches use the Orphan and Stand Sunday services as an opportunity to provide a special offering to Miriam's Heart. Our name is inspired by the sister of Moses, the legendary leader of the ancient Hebrews, and the selfless way she advocated for her brother. Before he could lead millions of others out of great oppression, saving Moses himself required extraordinary action.  It was the compassion, bravery, and care in Miriam’s heart that gave her the strength to watch over and advocate for her brother in dangerous circumstances, ensuring both his security in the arms of a daughter of Pharaoh and a way to keep him safely connected with his family.

The Miriam's Heart fund provides for the costs of adoption and post-placement therapy and counseling fees. We are the only fund focused on meeting the needs of adoptive families in the Northeast that offers support regardless of agency, church, organizational or other affiliation. All monies that are placed in the Miriam's Heart Fund will go directly toward adoption expenses and post-placement therapy and support for adoptive children and families.
