Every day, week and month is dedicated to bringing about awareness of one cause or another. Adoption awareness started out as a week, and is now observed for a full month. You may not have plans to adopt, but your family can still help spread the word about the thousands of children waiting for a place to call home.
Not sure where to start? Take a look at this adoption calendar or you can buy the National Adoption Awareness Month Guide. Do a unit study about adoption. Find out what the Bible has to say about adoption. Learn the history of adoption and discover which famous people in history were adopted. Read stories about adoption. Discuss why children need to be adopted which can cover health and science. You can learn geography by finding out which countries allow international adoptions and which do not. You can implement some math by using the following statistics from U.S. Census.
Print out these posters to put up in the workplace, church or library. This page also has a HTML code you can put in the sidebar of your blog.
Even if you cant adopt a child, you can still help one to be adopted.
