Job 73: National Adoption Month


I feel incredibly blessed to announce that I have been hired to produce a video to raise awareness about National Adoption Month for Job 73.  More about my partner when the video is released!

As with all things on the web, this initiative has to move quickly because National Adoption Month closes in just over a week and the approximately 5 minute video is due next Monday. (!!!) I'm glad I have a solid production team that can deliver this quickly to our client!

Some helpful adoption links in Quebec discovered during my research to find children in foster care to interview on Thursday or Friday:

http://www.acjq.qc.ca/ (French foster care and adoption government agency)
http://www.batshaw.qc.ca/ (English Batshaw Youth and Family Centre)

I also found this pamphlet on gay and lesbian adoptions in Quebec, which is incredibly helpful for anyone looking to foster a child or adopt.

Speaking of great causes, Vik's Movember campaign alongside GameRaise.com raised over $800 to benefit men's health during our Stash Bash to Raise Cash at Club Lambi! Movember donations can be made up until the end of November!

Here's a few photos from the event:

We took to the stage and raised $800! 


So excited to collaborate on great social causes,
