Bullpen Donates Marketing for Adoption Event

Wednesday, October 26th, 2011

Houston (October 26, 2011) – Three Houston adoption agencies are coming together on Saturday, November 12, 2011 to celebrate, educate and inspire in an event called The Celebration of Adoption, A Loving Choice.  The event is for families formed through adoption, those interested in learning about the process of adoption, and anyone who wants to celebrate the loving choice of adoption. This free event will last from 11am to 2pm in the Campus Life Mall at The University of St. Thomas.  The event will feature informational booths, speakers, music, and games for the whole family.  Food will be available for sale.

“There are few gifts greater than the gift of adoption,” says Colin Hageney, President of Bullpen Marketing.  “My godson and his family are a match made in heaven.  We are hopeful that the creation of the identity for this loving event will help match other families.”

Adoption allows a birth mother to select a safe, welcoming family for her child and it bestows upon the adoptive family the gift of a cherished new family member.  Motivated by these loving choices, Catholic Charities, Gladney Center for Adoption, and Alternatives in Motion celebrate the beautiful gift of adoption through this one-day event.
