Jim Carr Memorial Fund for Adoption

The Jim Carr Memorial Fund for Adoption provides one award of $1,000 each year to help a Douglas County family with the costs of adopting a child. The fund was established in 2002 in memory of Jim Carr, a Lawrence firefighter and father of two adopted daughters.

The next opportunity to apply for this award will be in 2012. If you would like us to notify you when we begin taking applications, please contact us.
