On May 9 at the Houston Country Club, guests of the Spaulding for Children’s 40 Years of Families luncheon were among the first to hear a major announcement for the future of the organization, as a video presentation unveiled the newly branded Arms Wide Adoption Services.

The keynote address featured KPRC2 Chief Meteorologist Frank Billingsley, and the event emcee was KPRC2 Anchor Dominique Sachse. The 40th anniversary luncheon raised more than $102,000 in support of the organization.
