2026’s Annual Family Picnic
Adoption From The Heart’s Annual Family Picnic is coming up fast! This year, on June 14th, will be the 36th Annual Picnic for AFTH. Every year, the Annual Picnic has been a great time for families to join together and celebrate the impact of adoption. This year’s picnic is shaping up to be another wonderful celebration, and we are excited to invite everyone to join our picnic.
Lukens Park Family Picnic
Everyone’s Playground at Lukens Park (540 Dresher Road, Horsham, PA, 19044) will once again be where we are hosting our picnic for our Wynnewood, New Jersey, Allentown, Central PA, and Delaware locations. The picnic will be held from 11 AM to 2PM with food and lots of fun activities.
AFTH will once again have a food tent where families can get lunch and ice cream. We will also have a professional photographer to do family portraits. AFTH families can get a free lunch, ice cream, and family portrait if they RSVP here. We will have a kids activity zone featuring gaga ball, soccer darts, axe throwing, football toss, and face painting. You can purchase tickets to all these fun activities at the AFTH ticket tent. Additionally, there will be a kids’ craft table and family activities like a three-legged race and sack races.
Heart & Soul’d will have a thrifting booth featuring a variety of new and lightly used items. Heart & Soul’s owners, Kristen and Terry, both adopted their daughters through AFTHH. They use proceeds from their business to donate (mission match) to nonprofits that help support adoption and foster services around Delaware County, Pennsylvania. We are proud to be one of the organizations they mission match.
Some of the other activities you can look forward to, include, a raffle with a chance to win an autographed and framed photo of Jason Kelce and Phanatic hugging; Hurts, Barkley, and DeJean framed cards; Slomoo (slime experience) tickets; family book baskets with books from adoption authors; and much more! DJ Rambo will be joining us for music. We will have a 360 photo booth. And Amanda’s Amazing Treats will be selling food.

Donate
If you can’t fit the picnic into your schedule, that is totally ok, you can still make an impact! If you still want to help support our programs and services, you can help us reach our fundraising goals by donating here.
A Special Thank You
We want to give a special thank you to our sponsors, the Law Offices of Deborah E. Spivack and Entrust Financial! Without the generous support of our sponsors, we would not be able to come together to celebrate the impact that adoption has had on all of our families.
