It is time for us to give back to our own communities !!!
Created specifically to make the lives of Children in the Foster Care System,
and Foster Families better.
We are dedicated to help change the negative connotations of being a Child
in the Foster Care System.  Showing the children that they are not
second-class citizens. Providing them with a nurturing FAMILY
environment, and helping them to understand that it is not their fault.
THEY COME TO US WITH NOTHING !
The Children Come First

There are no paid positions in our foundation.  Every dollar is
used to provide MORE than just the basics for the children.
Our hearts go out to the family of Mrs. Holly Mitchell at this time of their untimely loss.
 She was a dear friend and offered us so much help and support with getting the
foundation up and running.  She will be missed.  
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You

After 9 months of waiting, in and out of escrow 3 separate
times, and many "No's",  We were able to raise $76,000.00
which was enough to purchase our first property with LAND
for the children.  Please check our "Watch Us Grow" page
for an up to date photo diary of where we will start the
transformation to create an extraordinary home for siblings,
and a full list of everyone that will be donating their time and
materials to make this happen.
