NEDC 1500 Babies Celebration

As the National Embryo Donation Center (NEDC) nears the arrival of Baby 1500 through our embryo donation/embryo adoption program, we’re inviting you to our 1500 Babies Celebration! It’ll be held on Saturday, June 29th, from 10:30 am to 2:00 pm at The Venue at Lenoir City just outside Knoxville.

Get ready for a fun, moving, and memorable day with a keynote address by nationally known life-affirming author and podcast host Abby Johnson. Her memoir, Unplanned, tells the story of Abby’s transition from abortion clinic director to passionate advocate for life. The book inspired a hit 2019 film of the same name.

Your whole family is invited to this celebration, which will include a variety of activities for children, including games and inflatables, along with a chance to connect with other embryo donation/embryo adoption families from all across the country. You’ll also enjoy a delicious meal provided by Tennessee’s own Buddy's BBQ.

The 1500 Babies Celebration is made possible in part by the generous support of our sponsors: , , and .

Attendance is free. However, if you feel led to help us offset the cost of this event, we will gladly accept donations at the time of your ticket order or at the celebration. Please RSVP before June 15 (and please only RSVP if you're sure you're coming!).
