The inspiration for the ELISON project came from the adoption of Philip and Shelby’s daughters.  They have adopted two little girls from China, both of whom are deaf.  Through their experience with adopting children who have  special needs  and those of their friends who have adopted special needs children, Philip & Shelby realized a great need for not only aiding in the financial aspect of adoption, but also to provide information on some of the special needs affecting the children in China.  We would love for you to get to know the children who inspired the ELISON project.
