Dear donors,
Our Foster Care service provides homes for children under 6 years old, in São Paulo - Brazil. These children had to be temporarily removed from their families by court order. During this period of separation, children receive care and protection from qualified foster families, that are systematically monitored to perform this function. Meanwhile, we work closely with the biological families so children can return to their homes safely and in the shortest time possible. If this is not possible, other permanency options may be explored such, as adoption.
We would like to share a new testimonial with you from a foster family who is fostering their 4th baby!
“We are a Foster Family! We welcome babies separated from their mothers so they can have a family experience while their legal situation is been solved. We give love, affection, attention, milk, diapers, baths, baby food ... We just give?!? We receive! We receive pure love! Like the mind, here is the soul that expands, the gaze that opens to another human being, that opens to so many different stories, without room for judgment, with much emotion. Learning, empathy, laughter, tears, arrivals and departures…And the heart, expands.” (Lumena & Ronaldo)
Thank you for your help creating new stories for Brazilian children!
