Meet Andy
Andy (3) entered care at 10 months old due to severe neglect. Like many 3-year-old boys, Andy loves playing with cars, however, because of his autism it is often difficult to find toys that interest him. When his caregiver noticed his fascination with cars, Promises2Kids funded Andy’s request for his very own toy car!
Meet Hazel
Hazel (16) entered care earlier this year when her biological mother could no longer take care of her. She was severely verbally abused and had to be removed. She is naturally introverted, and with all the recent changes in her life, she was not looking forward to attending a new school. To cheer Hazel up, her caregiver reached out to Promises2Kids, and through the Something Special Fund, LEGOLAND tickets were funded.
Meet Maggie
Being at a new home, Maggie had to move schools, where the only person she knew was her foster sibling. Initially, she was nervous about being in a new environment and having to make new friends. To make the transition easier, she decided to get involved in color guard...
Meet Bianca
Bianca (7) was 5 years old when she entered care due to neglect, physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, and witnessing domestic violence between her biological parents. Since arriving at the A.B and Jessie Polinsky Children’s Center, Bianca has lived in 4 different homes, each time attending a new school, in just the past two years.
Meet Ethan
Ethan (3) was only three months old when he was placed into foster care due to neglect and living in an unsafe environment. He has since been with a caregiver who is dedicated to providing him with the childhood he deserves. His caregiver reached out to get him his first bike.
Meet Alan
Alan (8 months old) entered care the day he was born. He was removed from his biological mother due to prenatal drug exposure. His caregiver wanted to enroll him in baby sign language classes so he could be given the gift of language before he could speak.
