National Adoption Day Book and Bear Drive
Friday, November 22, 2019 was by far one of the best days of the year at the West Palm Beach Courthouse
because it was National Adoption Day! Thanks in part to our Lawyers for Literacy Committee, every
child (and their siblings) were given a goody bag to remember the day including books and bears that
were donated by our generous members. For all of our members who collected items for this special
event– thank you! PBCBA Board of Directors brought in their donations to support this worthy cause.
