Valentine's Day 1983 was a cold, dreary, and snowy day! But it brought us an amazing gift, Adam McCloud. He brought an amazing light into the lives of all that knew him. He brought passion and laughter into our world. He loved Halloween and Christmas. He was a great, thoughtful gift giver. His laugh filled every room he entered. Those who knew him called him Clouds. 

On October 5th, 2012, his light left the world forever. He was assaulted while out in Downtown Stillwater, MN the week before. The hospital stayed crowded with those that loved him. We prayed for a miracle to save him, but we didn't receive our miracle.

At the same time, there were other families out there praying equally as hard for a miracle. When our miracle wasn't granted, we knew HE needed to be the miracle for others who desperately needed one too. He was an organ donor and saved 5 lives that fall day. 

We knew right away that we would keep his light alive by sharing gifts wtih the world. We became passionate about Organ Donation and the gift of life that it gives. And because everyone needs a little extra joy at Christmas we also have a toy drive to keep alive his gift giving, kid at heart 6'4" man we loved so deeply. 

That became the Adam McCloud Foudnation. We give gifts from the Clouds!
