2023 Kalamazoo Alternatives Autumn Gala

Because LIFE is Good!

Event Information:

We are excited to invite you to join us for our Annual Autumn Gala this year at Gull Lake Ministries!

The Annual Autumn Gala is the largest and most crucial fundraiser for Alternatives of Kalamazoo, a ministry committed to promoting the value of human life by serving the unborn and their families through the love of Jesus in the greater Kalamazoo community and beyond. As Alternatives desires to expand and grow the services we provide, the needs of the ministry grow greater... to put it simply, we can't do this without you!

KEYNOTE SPEAKER: RYAN BOMBERGER

Ryan Bomberger has a rather unique perspective of the innate nature of Purpose. His biological mother was raped yet courageously gave him a chance to live and the beautiful gift of adoption. He was adopted at 6 weeks of age and grew up in a loving, multi-“racial” Christian family of 15. With siblings of varying ethnicities, he grew up with a great appreciation for diversity. Ten of the thirteen children were adopted in this remarkable family. His life defies the myth of the “unwanted” child as he was adopted, loved and has flourished.

He was the creative force behind the first ad campaign to expose abortion’s hugely disproportionate impact in the black community. The bold TooManyAborted.com billboards/web campaigns made an unexpected impact in the pro-life movement.

Today, he is an Emmy® Award-winning Creative Professional who founded The Radiance Foundation (TRF), a life-affirming 501(c)(3), along with his wife, Bethany. He is a broadcast media designer, producer, columnist, passionate factivist, international public speaker and author of the powerful book, Not Equal: Civil Rights Gone Wrong.
