EyesAVA's Hope was founded in 2005 to fund the adoption of international orphans who otherwise have no hope for the love, care or future that a permanent family provides.

We believe that no child should go without a family simply because of the enormous expense associated with the adoption process.

We aspire to ensure that money is never the reason a child goes without a home. Read more...

Latest News

UPDATE: (10/10/09)  In honor of National Orphan Day, Ava's Hope will be the benificiaries of an exciting event taking place in Cincinnati.  Shannon McKnight is a licensed massage therapist specializing in infant massage - specifically in teaching techniques that promote bonding for adoptive and biological parents with their children and in healing common infant discomforts such as reflux and gas.

If you are a parent of a child (newborn - 3 years old) you'll find this 2 hour class fun, relaxing and an unbelivable parental aid.  If you are in the process of adopting or are pregnant, Shannon has special dolls you can use as you learn the techniques.  All the massage professionals are donating their time and refreshments are being donated so that all proceeds from the event will go directly to Ava's Hope (for future adoption grants).

To register, please contact Shannon at 513-225-0097.
