Thanks to everyone for making the Foster Kids project so successful! And a special thank you to our other team members Tabitha, Micah & Jeshuah Horn; thanks again for being a vital part of our volunteer effort!
We delivered 50 backpacks, plus tons of additional clothing and toiletry items to the Rainbow Room in Austin. The Rainbow Room is a part of Partnerships for Children.
The mission of Partnerships for Children has always been to provide critical resources to abused, neglected and homeless children in our community who are in the care of Child Protective Services. Partnerships for Children works to bridge the gap between limited government resources and the critical needs of Central Texas Children. The items we have collected will be given to the children/teenagers as they are moved into new foster homes. It will give them a sense of having “something of their own” to take with them.
A special thank you to our great team (which includes Tabitha, Micah & Jeshuah Horn), thanks again for being a vital part of our volunteer effort!
