30 Wishes Honoring 30 Outstanding Adoptive Families
One of MARE’s favorite Adoption Month events is our 30 Wishes campaign, where we celebrate 30 Outstanding Adoptive Families in November. In partnership with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, MARE grants one family a wish each day of the month and features them on our website and social media channels. Families are nominated for the difference they've made in their children's lives, and their stories reflect the love, resilience, and dedication that define adoption.
Nominate an Outstanding Adoptive Family!
This August, we'll begin accepting nominations for this year's 30 Wishes Awards, recognizing Michigan's outstanding adoptive families! If you know a family whose love and commitment reflect the heart of adoption, watch our website for nomination information. We'd love your help celebrating families making a meaningful difference in the lives of their children!
