Matt

This month we are delighted to recognise a super supporter who has been generously sharing his time and experience since adopting his two boys with PACT in 2020. 

After such a positive experience throughout the adoption process, Matt felt strongly that he wanted to give something back to the charity that helped build his family. By speaking at adoption events, supporting fundraising activities, and sharing his family’s story through CATCH and social media, he has become a wonderful advocate for PACT’s work. 

Matt’s positive and open contributions help prospective adopters understand the complete journey of adoption. His warmth and honesty shine throughout his interactions, offering encouragement, understanding, and reassurance. 

Sam Ward, PACT’s Events and Engagement Manager, said: “Matt is a brilliant supporter of PACT and we’re pleased to celebrate his overall awesomeness! He brings such genuine care and insight to everything he does. By sharing his family’s lived experience, he helps others feel informed, supported, and hopeful. We are incredibly grateful for the time and heart he gives to PACT.” 

Matt said: “After my husband and I had such a positive experience adopting our two boys with PACT, giving back felt natural and important to me. Sharing a positive and realistic picture of adoption is my way of supporting the charity that gave (and continues to give) our family so much.” 

Matt, thank you so much for everything you do to support PACT. Your enthusiasm and commitment shines through everything you do. Congratulations on being our Supporter of the Month!
