Empty Stroller March

Jacob and I are registered to participate in the Empty Stroller March at the National Mall in Washington, DC on August 26th. This is a really great cause - details are below...

Parents who have been waiting for their adopted children to come home, adoption advocates and potential families that have been denied the opportunity to adopt will push empty strollers August 26 in Washington, D.C. Many of the strohttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifllers will be wrapped in red tape, representing the bureaucracy that prevents children from being with families, and making the central statement of the march.

The march coincides with the launch of a member drive for the Both Ends Burning Campaign, the global movement to transform the broken system of international adoption. Like other great social movements, the campaign has a world-changing goal – to create a new system of international adoption so more orphaned and abandoned children can have families.

Join us on August 26th in Washington, D.C. All you need is a stroller and your walking shoes, we will provide the red tape!


You can register to march to show your support or you can go to their website to make a donation. Their website is: http://bothendsburning.org/
