We know that Awareness brings change
We believe that with awareness, comes empathy, thinking changes, priorities change and responsibilities change...
Our purpose is about encouraging Canadian society to do a better and more enlightened job of dealing with children who suddenly find themselves without real parents.
What about abandonment?
Abandoned once can scar for life but repeatedly— - indoctrinates the child with absolutely no self worth - no security - no trust - hopelessness and despair.
By the time a child leaves (outgrows) foster care at 16 - 18 years of age—they are unable to take care of their basic needs. 43% of these children end up on the Streets of our cities. . We need volunteers to:
· Clerical office work · Telephone calls · Typing · Organize speaker programs · Networking
