Jordan’s Furniture to Host 5k Walk/Run for Adoption

Jordan's Furniture, a New England furniture business, is hosting the Walk/Run for Adoption 2016 on Sunday, May 22 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at their Taunton facility.
The event will benefit the Massachusetts Adoption Resource Exchange (MARE), a nonprofit organization whose mission it is to find a permanent place to call home for children and youth waiting in foster care.
You may know Jordan's Furniture for the fun and family oriented shopping experiences they offer at their stores. But, you may not know, that they also champion children in foster care who need adoptive homes, and often sponsor adoption events, together with MARE, throughout the year.
Eliot Tatelman, President and CEO of Jordan's Furniture, says, "How can we have kids without homes? To have a child in society going from house to house in foster care and not have a permanent place…that is unfair. As far as I'm concerned, there's nothing better than coordinating events to help to create families."
By participating in the Jordan's Furniture Walk/Run for Adoption you will help change a child's life by supporting MARE's work to recruit adoptive parents for children and youth in state care.
