2025 Families for Kids Luncheon

We are excited to host our 2025 Families for Kids Luncheon on April 23, 2025 at River Oaks Country Club  which will honor Tokio Marine HCC!

Our keynote speaker is Peter Mutabazi, entrepreneur and author of Now I am Known. After running away from an abusive home at age 10, Peter struggled to survive for 5 years on the streets of Uganda until one man saw his potential and supported him through school, forever changing Peter’s outlook on the world. Now an adoptive father and foster dad to many, he is an international advocate for children and founder of Now I Am Known which is a foundation that provides invaluable resources and initiatives to empower foster children.

If you would like to support and attend our luncheon, please register using the button below and we’ll see you there!
