We will be celebrating our 13th consecutive year participating in National Adoption Day. Our event will begin with a guest speaker at our Press Conference. We have been fortunate to receive a grant from the Gilbert M. and Martha H. Hitchcock Foundation again this year, which will help our celebration tremendously with providing entertainment (balloon artist, face painting, magician, etc.), photo booth, gifts for all the children being adopted, t-shirts, professional family photos, desserts/beverages, flowers for all the parents, a chili feed at the Children's Museum following the adoptions, and much more! A list of sponsors/donations are as follows:
