On an average day in America there are 120,000* orphans and foster children living in group homes or institutions. They believe no one wants them or cares about them. Many of their family members trafficked them for discount drugs. 1.3 million* homeless youths are living on the street ----- many were in the foster care system. They struggle to survive. It's critical for communities to come together to help these desperate kids!
Illinois continues to shuttle kids from group home to group home, including children who are returned by adopted and foster families. These precious kids don't have a chance to stay long enough in group homes to develop strong friendships or trust. It's hard for them to learn when they constantly have to adjust to a new environment. Frequently, the children are heartbroken and scared when they move on to a new group home and different schools, again and again! Sometimes, twice in one year! Who can heal and learn under these conditions!? Support us now!
