Celebrating ... Our Families, Our Children


Our annual "Celebrating ... Our Families, Our Children" benefit was held on October 20, 2012, at Castillo del Lago in the Hollywood Hills, California. The Institute proudly honored longtime supporter Ame Austin Max and spotlight award winner the Children's Action Network.

Celebrating ... Our Families, Our Children is vital to the Institute's ability to undertake our work. If you haven't already done so-or if you would like to help out some more-it's not too late to make a donation. Please go to www.adoptioninstitute.org/about/support.php to find out how.
