Gathering to Give 2023
There will be something for everyone to enjoy as hundreds of compassionate Rhode Islanders come together in early June across seven days and an array of featured events to help Adoption Rhode Island make life better for children and teens in foster care.
Three grand events from June 2nd to June 8th – each in a stunning venue offering distinctive entertainment and moving programs – will CELEBRATE the strength, beauty, and potential of children, teens, young adults, and families touched by foster care, INSPIRE generosity so that being in foster care is never a barrier to the childhood and future every young person deserves, and HONOR the champions whose leadership, advocacy and philanthropy are changing lives and making the world a better place for all children.
