✨Sometimes it’s the little things that mean so much!

These four boys were just hanging out and enjoying each other’s company today.

We’ve always been intentional about having spaces where children can play, relax, make friends, and just be kids while they’re here.

We are more than just clothes. We are community! 💕

🎓 CALLING ALL FOSTER FAMILIES WITH HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS! 🎓

October is here, and that means college application season is officially underway! ❤️

Did you know that many colleges and universities offer free application processing fees during October? This can be a great opportunity for your senior to apply to schools without having to worry about those extra application costs.

✨ Encourage your senior to start exploring colleges
✨ Check application deadlines
✨ Look for fee-free application opportunities
✨ Ask their school counselor about additional fee waivers and resources

Foster youth may have access to additional college scholarships, financial aid and support programs. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and advocate for every opportunity available to your senior!
