hosted at the Boston Marriott Newton

The theme of our 34th Annual Fundraising Banquet is “The Future is Family.” We hope you will join us to celebrate the foundational role of faith, marriage, and children in shaping a flourishing society. As cultural winds shift, we stand firmly on the truth that strong families are the key to strong communities.

Dr. Brad Wilcox, professor of sociology at the University of Virginia and director of the National Marriage Project will be our keynote speaker. His research focuses on marriage, fatherhood, and family life and he is widely recognized as a leading expert on the role of marriage in contemporary society. Dr. Wilcox has authored and co-authored numerous scholarly articles and books. He is also a senior fellow at the Institute for Family Studies and a visiting scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. Dr. Wilcox’s work has been featured in major media outlets and informs national conversations on the importance of thriving families. Come be a part of something meaningful—you won’t want to miss this inspiring event!
