Get Involved!
We have many opportunities for giving outreach presentations to tell our adoption stories. You can talk with high school classes or others to create a positive perception of adoption as a loving option for unplanned pregnancy. Also, the Skittle committee is forming for the May event at Six Flags Over Texas. This is a great way to spend time with other Gladney moms and moms-to-be as we prepare for one of the primary fundraisers for the Gladney Fund.
