Waiting for You: Calista

February 4, 2018 Children Who Wait 1 Comments

Calista is a precious baby girl, born in March of 2015, with down syndrome and a heart defect (ASD), which has been surgically corrected. Calista is listed with Madison Adoption Associates.



Calista’s nanny works with her to help her with her development. Calista is sweet and huggable. She loves music and her nanny! She will benefit from therapies when she comes home. With her heart surgery behind her, Calista is ready to come home and be the center of attention!




There is a $5,000 Bright Futures agency grant for Calista’s adoption with MAA. There is an extra $1,000 grant for any family who moves forward for a waiting child in the month of December 2017! Other grants may be available based on the adoptive family’s circumstances. Agency grants are awarded as agency fee reductions. Madison Adoption Associates also partners with the Brittany’s Hope Foundation for matching grants, which are given out twice a year (January and July) and to families that already matched with a child. Calista also has a Reece’s Rainbow account started for her.
