"Because Every Kid Needs A Family"
Kidsave is an organization that is dedicated to getting children out of orphanages and foster care and into permanent families. You can go to their website for all of the information – they do several different things! This year, we will be hosting for their Summer Miracles program. I don't yet know if it will be a boy or a girl, but to make this article easier to type and read, I will use “she” and “her.”
For approximately five weeks this summer, a parentless child from Colombia will become part of our family. This will give her the opportunity to experience life in a family, learn about another culture, and possibly do things that are not normally available to a young person in her position. Most importantly, we hope that we will be able to help find a permanent family for this child. The chances of this happening are excellent!
