GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Jan. 23, 2012 /Christian
Newswire/ -- This year's football fans gathering at various watch
parties will have access to one Super Bowl coach's personal thoughts
during halftime. A free downloadable video kit is available to local
game watching party organizers which features Super Bowl winning coach
Tony Dungy and his wife Lauren.
The video message includes a personal appeal to Americans
on the subject of the current orphan crisis and adoption. Dungy is
involved with The Adoption
Journey Project to help influence more couples to consider adoption.
"The big win on Super Sunday would be to raise awareness
about the millions of children who need a family. I would love to see
thousands of local community groups and circles of friends gathering
together to stop and consider how they can help," said Dungy, the
winning head coach of the 2007 Super Bowl Champion Indianapolis Colts.
"With more than 100,000 children in need of a stable and
loving family in the US, if just a fraction of groups gathering to watch
the Big Game influence just one family to adopt, we would make a huge
dent in this social crisis," said Marc Andreas, Vice President of
Marketing at Bethany Christian Services, the largest adoption agency in
the country.

organizations who want to break down the barriers to adoption -- Bethany
Christian Services, Lifesong for Orphans, and Lifeline Children's

process, offer comprehensive yet easily accessible information about
domestic and international adoption, and connect those who have already
adopted with those who are thinking about it.
