It’s Giving Tuesday and U.S. Orphans Need Your Help!

It’s Giving Tuesday! Did you know that right in our own backyards there are orphans that need your help? After suffering abuse and neglect, they now live in foster homes, group homes, and shelters. They move an average of three to four times a year, so the stability of school, teachers and friends are lost. Without stability, and with the added impact of COVID isolation, these children are at high risk for mental health disorders, depression, and even suicide.

I hope you are doing well! It’s an incredibly busy time of year for most of us, so I appreciate you taking the time to read our newsletter. Last month I shared about what foster children experience when they go back to school. This month, I’d like to highlight an additional challenge that these vulnerable children endure.  Once children are removed from their homes to protect them, they are housed in shelters, group homes, and foster homes. Unfortunately, for one reason or another, they are forced to move an average twice a year. They pack their meager possessions in a garbage bag, backpack, or shabby suitcase. Some children quit bothering to unpack. They also quit bothering to make friends, trust adults, or connect with teachers. Their ability to create meaningful relationships is broken by the trauma and they experienced and continue to experience. https://allkidsneedmusic.academy/2022/08/31/no-place-to-call-home-aknm-august-2022-newsletter/
