In searching the web for unique fundraisers, I found Anna Bear. This looks like it would be a great way not only to raise money for your adoption but to also get the word out about adoption. These bears wear shirts that can be customized with the flag of your choice. From what I read it can also bear the image of your baby too! They read "I support adoption."
Here is a testimonial from the site:
We embarked on our adoption journey over a year ago, after taking out an adoption loan and an equity line, we found that we were still did not have enough money to fund our adoption. We looked at different fund raising options but none seemed to fit our needs and we did not qualify for any available grants.
Deciding there must be a better way, we came up with the idea to sell teddy bears with a logo that says "I support adoption" and a picture of a child. We were able to raise almost $10,000.00 by selling bears to our family and friends and having them sell bears to their family and friends. It is our hope that other adoptive families will be able to benefit the same way we did.

Selling these bears will take effort on your part but nothing about fundraising is said to be easy! However, there is something about selling a Teddy bear with the Guatemala flag on it that may even have your baby's picture on it that makes me think that this could be a very successful.
There are also T-shirts available to sell that would match the ones worn by the bear if someone wasn't into buying a teddy bear but would maybe buy a shirt. If you are looking into options for fundraising, definitely check this one out.
