Five Acres, The Boys’ and Girls’ Aid Society of Los Angeles County, is a non-profit, child and family services agency that strengthens families and prevents child abuse through treatment and education in community-based and residential programs. Originally founded in 1888 as an orphanage, today Five Acres offers an array of services including residential care and educational services, mental health services in homes and schools, foster care and adoptions, and domestic violence prevention. Ninety-eight percent of our clients are considered poor or below the poverty level.
In light of the upcoming National Adoption Month, which takes place every November, we are planning an adoption celebration for our foster children and their adoptive parents. Adoption is a joyful event and we want to share the excitement with the parents and foster children who have found each other and created a forever family. We are expecting that 70 people will be in attendance.
We are grateful for any assistance you can provide in our Adoption Celebration. Your assistance and thoughtfulness is appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
