A heartfelt thank you to the Hobbs Foundation for its generous sponsorship of our upcoming Adoption Match Event!

On Saturday, June 6, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., approved adoptive families and children awaiting permanency will come together at We Rock the Spectrum Kids Gym for a morning filled with exciting games and activities, food and refreshments, a photobooth, and indoor play opportunities designed to encourage meaningful connections in a fun and welcoming environment.

We are incredibly grateful to the Hobbs Foundation for helping to make this special event possible. Your generosity is creating opportunities for children to connect with prospective forever families and bringing hope, belonging, and brighter futures to youth in foster care.
