Big thanks to FM100 Memphis and Papa John's Pizza for their Cards for Kids project. This made Valentine's Day extra special for the kids in our care!
Thank you to all who took part in the second annual Viewing Party to celebrate the GRAMMY Awards®! We are especially grateful to our founder, Steven Tyler, and Aerosmith for their unwavering dedication to helping brave and courageous girls heal. #JamForJanie
Kyle is looking for a forever family, and our goal is to get his post shared 200 times to help spread the word on adoption. Will you help by sharing with your friends and family? bit.ly/2GCFKS5
I was 58 when I adopted my son. He was almost 8. He finished college and has a great career. He is happy and grateful to have been in a loving home. Why is everybody so hung up on “age”? Can’t imagine my life without him. He is a wonderful young man. Jean
