Today, we pause to remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. 🇺🇸❤️

This Memorial Day, Booker’s Place honors the heroes who never made it home and the families who carry their memory every day. Their courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

May we never take for granted the freedoms we enjoy because of those who gave everything in service to our country.

We’re so excited to officially introduce our photographer for this year’s Bingo, Badges, and Bags, Brooke Janae Photography by the talented Brooke Jefferson! 📸✨

Brooke has such a gift for capturing genuine moments, meaningful connections, and all the fun in between, and we are so thankful she will be helping us capture the memories from one of our favorite nights of the year.

From the laughter and bingo wins to the community coming together for children and families, we know these moments will be beautifully documented through her lens.

💙 Every child deserves a safe place to call home.

In Oklahoma, thousands of children are in foster care right now waiting for safety, stability, and support. Foster Care Awareness Month is a reminder that even small acts of kindness can make a big difference in a child’s life.

This month, Booker’s Place is also collecting gift cards to help children who are waiting on placement and families caring for children in crisis. Gift cards for food, clothing, hygiene items, gas, Walmart, restaurants, and other essentials can make an immediate impact for a child during a difficult time. ❤️

Whether it’s becoming a foster parent, donating, mentoring, supporting local families, or simply sharing resources, we can all help be part of the village.

Help us spread awareness by:
✨ Liking our page
✨ Sharing this post
✨ Inviting others to follow Booker’s Place
✨ Donating gift cards to support children in our community

Together, we can be the village for children and families in our community. 🫶
