A Chapter vs Chapter vs National Board vs Staff Virtual Trivia Challenge
and Annual Values Awards Presentation
Tuesday, December 1, 2026 (Giving Tuesday)
7:00 – 8:30 pm (CST)
Join us on Giving Tuesday, December 1st, for a night of recognition and the chance to win up to $6,000!
Chapter boards, the National Board, and the staff team will compete in a trivia challenge for the chance to ‘win’ the pool of dollars generated by the event to complete a GOA grant in your team’s name.
The Chapter Awards Recognition will recognize the 2026 Congressional Coalition on Adoption Angels in Adoption and the 2026 GOA Core Value Honor, Amplify and Be Scrappy award recipients.
We will do a Chapter Trivia Challenge – two rounds of trivia with the 1st Place chapter team will receive up to $6,000 to help one more child find a permanent family in your state!
As the Trivia Game progresses, players will be ranked on both their individual performance and their team performance. The trivia game uses an algorithm to calculate the average performance per player on a team (e.g. average points earned per player) in order to rank teams. So whether a team has more or fewer players they will still have the same shot at winning the trivia contest!
NEW THIS YEAR! You can participate as an “Individual” and rely on your own trivia prowess to win the game, as a household with a “Family” ticket, or take advantage of group knowledge with a “Party Ticket” and encourage your friends to join you!
Last year we had two winners — Tennessee and Arizona Chapter came home with the big win. Who will take it all this year?
Instructions, including a link to join virtually, will be emailed prior to the event. The link can be opened on a computer, tablet, or mobile device.
