The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Maatta / Musser / Frank, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Maatta / Musser / Frank's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family.

The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption.
