It is Day 3 of Foster Care Awareness Month and we need to keep making noise.
Sometimes we don't speak out about an issue because we don't think it directly affects us or the people we love. But we promise you, this does. People who have experienced foster care are all around you - you just may not know it.
Your coworker
Your child's teacher
Your doctor
Your delivery driver
Your friend
Please join us in raising your voices for them.
All of them.
Here are 3 simple ways you can help us make noise:
Grant a wish.
And tell people about it.
When you find a wish that resonates with you, share it with the people around you. Post it on social media, email and text it to friends and coworkers. Assume no one knows who we are or what we do and how much more joy there would be if they did. So, tell them!
Talk about foster care.
Our friends at FosterMore have a ton of great videos, stats and stories that encourage you to donate your small talk so more people can become aware of the impact foster care has on millions of people everywhere.
Follow & share.
Our Instagram is the best place to see what we're up to and witness the impact your gifts are making. This May will be sharing so many powerful stories and we need you to make sure they are heard.
Thank you so much for using your voice,
Danielle & The OSW Team
