My name is Matthew Peiffer and I am a local to Muncie. 

For the past 10 years I have been an advocate on topics like foster care, adoptions and child welfare in general. I have had the honor of being recognized by the U.S. Congress, T-Mobile, USA TODAY, and many other achievements. I have spoken to audiences all across America including the Assemblies of God National Conference, West Virginia statewide foster care Summit, Ohio Foster care summits, and numerous other opportunities. Unfortunately I have never gotten the chance to speak locally. So I am setting up an event in the community to help churches, government, local leaders, and community members, see how they can help support foster youth from all walks of life. I would love to see you or others who you think might be a good fit to attend my event at the Muncie City Hall September 30th at 5pm to 7:30pm! 

Here is the event sign up from facebook! And the link below that if you don't have facebook is for eventbrite!
