My Nonprofit Reviews

Having taken the time to go to one of the program's orientations, I found it to be very necessary. As I listened, I realized that this program is probably the best friend a child in the fostercare program could hope for. As a child of a very disfunctional family, I was placed into the fostercare program on a couple of occassions and for the most part it was probably the best thing that could have happened to me and my siblings. I know how scary going into fostercare is and I wish that more states would follow this program's lead for the benefit of the children. I also feel that this program gives the child a sense of importance and personal value. Although young children may not understand the dynamics of the program, they are better off having a voice there to speak for them and having a voice means fewer kids are falling through the cracks. I feel that when someone is looking out for these kids, the likelyhood of them failing to grow up and become productive members of society is less than if they had no voice at all. I feel that anyone who values our kids and wants them to grow up happy and strong, should do their part to ensure this. Our fostercare programs in this country are doing their best with what little money is available through government funding and so having charitable support can in most cases make a very positive difference. Even if you cannot contribute monetarily, think about giving time. Money is only half of this program's needs, the other half is the need for people who have the time to help. So if your looking for a great charity to give to finacially, this is one of the best. If you have time to spare, this charity needs you. There is nothing in my opinion more gratifying than helping a child. I hope that many of you reading this feel the same as I do.
