Healthy marriages are the building blocks of a healthy society.

“For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh” (Matthew 19:5)

How can you bless The Family Foundation?

The Family Foundation (TFF) is Virginia’s largest pro-family organization. I first learned about TFF in early 2000 while searching the Focus on the Family website for good family links. TFF was the only family policy council in Virginia endorsed by Focus on the Family.

After visiting TFF website, I met with the Resource Coordinator for TFF. I learned TFF had five core family values, all of which I agreed with. Then in June 2000, TFF held four pastor breakfasts in Virginia. I went to the one in Culpeper and met Pastor Mark Jarvis. He started me listening to Christian radio and ultimately led me to a personal relationship with Jesus. Those were just two of the many ways TFF blessed me.

Each year in December, TFF hosts its largest annual gathering in Richmond. This year’s “Marriage Celebration Gala” takes place on Monday December 4th at 6 PM at the Greater Richmond Convention Center in Richmond, Virginia.

The emcees for this year’s gala will be popular Richmond radio talk show hosts “The Lee Brothers.”  

The keynote speaker for this year’s gala is noted author and syndicated columnist Maggie Gallagher.  Mrs. Gallagher is president of the Institute for marriage and Public policy.  Her unique mission is research and education on ways that law and public policy can strengthen marriage as a public institution.  She has authored numerous books, including “The Case for Marriage.”

Lieutenant Governor Bill Bolling will participate in the program and event sponsors will hear exclusive remarks from Attorney General Bob McDonnell at a sponsors reception taking place at 6:00 pm. 

For sponsorships, tickets, or more information, contact Bob Lawrence at The Family Foundation at (804) 343-0010 or at bob@familyfoundation.org.
