National Adoption Month – 30 Days of Love

Each year in the month of November, people from all across the country band together and

celebrate National Adoption Month. It is a time of thankfulness, family, and love. It is also a

time of reflection and prayer for the many children still in foster care, the many children that

have yet to find that loving home they all deserve.

National Adoption Month is the perfect time for service and giving back to the community.

Here are some activities or events that could be used to help raise awareness for National

Adoption Month.

Fundraising

Adoption agencies from across the country can always use the support of the community.

Fundraisers and other types of benefit events often help to pay the bulk of the bills for most

adoption agencies, which tend to be non-profit. Fundraising also helps spread the word about

National Adoption Month.

Some ideas for fundraising include garage sales, auctions, dinners and events.

Volunteer

Adoption agencies always welcome the support of volunteers to aid them in daily operations.

Because of their non-profit status, it can be difficult for adoption agencies to bring in the

necessary labor for certain activities, such as outreach, fundraising, and special events, to

name a few. The generosity and selfless service of volunteers goes a very long way in helping

foster children and the adoption agencies.

Volunteers are also a great help to the National Adoption Month programs that many parents,

former foster children, and caring community members create and host to raise awareness.

Whether it is just for one event or perhaps the entire month, organizers welcome those who

want to help such a great cause.

Spread the Word

With our busy schedules, it can sometimes be hard to find the time for fundraising and

volunteer work. Fortunately, it is quite easy to take a small bit of time from the day to talk

about National Adoption Month and some of the difficulties foster children still face. Social

media is a great outlet for spreading the word – a tweet or status update can find the eyes of

people all across the country, even the world – and it takes only seconds to make a post.

National Adoption Month is a time of unity and service. Each year, thousands of foster children

and prospective parents finally come together to form the family they have desired for so

long. If you have the means and the time, consider helping out this November in spreading

the word.
