ACI Annual Gala

The ACI Annual Gala is our most significant fundraiser of the year, with proceeds directly supporting vital services such as adoption-competent therapy, financial aid for families, scholarships for adoptees and birth parents, and specialized support for children with special needs. Guided by our mission of Helping Children through Adoption, we take pride in never turning away a child in need.

This incredible work is only possible because of the generosity of our community! Join us for an unforgettable evening featuring a live and silent auction, paddle raise, dinner, and an inspiring program filled with stories from the ACI community. The Gala is usually held on a Saturday evening in the Spring season.

Annual Community Picnic

You’ll have a fun day with the kids and meet other adoptive families at the annual ACI Community Picnic. A picnic lunch is included. Jump in the bounce house, have fun with giant bubbles, get your face painted, make a fun craft and go on a pony ride for the ultimate summer fun!

The picnic is usually held on Saturday in September from 11 am to 2 pm.

Holiday Open House

This yearly event is a great opportunity to mingle with ACI families, staff and friends. Warm beverages, a light lunch and delicious holiday treats are provided. Children will enjoy holiday-themed crafts and activities.

Plus, there’s a visit from a couple special people – Santa and Frosty!

The Holiday Open House is usually held at the ACI office on a Sunday in early December. There’s no fee to attend and share your holiday spirit.
