Having placed over 5,500 children with loving families since 1972, the time has come to ensure that Dillon International will continue to serve children joining families today and families who are yet to come together. Looking ahead to the next 35 years, we see tremendous opportunities to build families and improve the lives of children in need. In order to see these goals become reality, we are compelled to look to the future. We are pleased to have the Dillon International Endowment Fund. Initiated by a sizeable contribution from the Meyer and Whitwell families of Tulsa, OK, the endowment will help perpetuate the unique culture of caring that families have come to expect from Dillon International. The gift from these two adoptive families affirms the agency's core principles and will help to perpetuate the meaningful mission embraced by our organization. With stewardship of any gift as a primary concern, the endowment funds will be held in trust for Dillon International and invested conservatively by the trustees. Annually, a portion of the income generated by the endowment fund will be distributed to Dillon International to help offset operational and program expenses. The remainder of the income, along with additional donations, will be added to the fund allowing it to grow and provide increasing resources for new programs at Dillon International in the future. Our initial goal is to raise $2 million. The two families along with the Dillon International Board of Directors look forward to your involvement in the success and growth of the endowment. If you are interested in assisting with this campaign or contributing financially, please contact Susanna Will, Director of Development, 918.749.4600 or by email.

Charitable Contributions Policy As a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, orphanCare's parent organization Dillon International, Inc., welcomes all donations to assist us in our mission to make a better life for children. Neither orphanCare International nor Dillon International will actively solicit donations from its adoptive families who are in any stage of the adoption process. Additionally, unsolicited donations from adoptive families who are in the adoption process with Dillon International will not be accepted until after the child's placement into the adoptive family's home. This policy applies to the immediate family as well, which is defined as parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters of the adoptive family. Neither orphanCare Inernational nor Dillon International may accept donations from adopting again families - or their parents, siblings or other close relatives - from the time the adoptive family begins their new adoption process until the child is placed in their home. Any adoptive family who is currently sponsoring a child(ren) through orphanCare International at the time they initiate their adoption process with Dillon International may continue their child sponsorship throughout their adoption process, however, they may not begin a new child or program sponsorship until after their adopted child has been placed into their home. This charitable contributions policy has been set to protect adoptive families and the agency from the perception of compromise during the adoption evaluation process with Dillon International. All other donations from friends and corporate sponsors of orphanCare International and its parent organization Dillon International, Inc., are appreciated at any time.
