Rodney Atkins To Appear In Adoption PSAs

May 6th, 2009

Rodney Atkins

Did you know that Rodney Atkins is the National Adoption Spokesperson? He will appear in multiple public service announcements set to air in the month of May.

Atkins teamed up with Families For All to tell his story…

Most people know me as a country music artist and songwriter. That’s what I do for a living, because that’s what I love. But let me tell you a thing or two about love.

You see, love saved my life. You may not know it, but I was adopted as a baby by my wonderful parents, Allan and Margaret Atkins of Cumberland Gap, Tennessee. I was a sickly baby, and after two sets of adoptive parents took me home, they returned me to the orphanage because of a serious respiratory infection.

But as they say, the third time’s a charm, because my mom and dad adopted me and took me into their home where I was raised in a family full of love. My parents believed that love is the best medicine, and I’m living proof of that.

Adoption changed my life, and it can change yours, as well as that of a child in foster care who needs a loving, permanent family.
