FootSteps for FosterCare 5K & Family Fun Day

5K walk and Family Fun Day

We would like to invite you to the Foster Adoptive Parent Association's "5K Walk and Fun Day" event on Saturday, November 3, 2012 at John Prince Park, Lake Worth.

Pet Pageant & Grooming by Palm Beach Pooch
Playground
BBQ Fundraiser
BIRTHDAY Celebration for Fab-U-Licious Maria Bond & Darling Daralyn

The event will help support the over 1500 foster children throughout Palm Beach County to bridge the gap between foster parents and child welfare agencies.There is a misconception that foster parents are paid, they are not. They are volunteers on duty 24/7 and receive a stipend that goes directly to care for the child which averages to about 55 cents an hour. The money we raise will go to develop programs that support foster families including; emergency bags, equipment, youth scholarships, emergency relief efforts, specialized trainings for foster families.

We need your support, so please do what you can, register for the walk, invite your friends to join us, or make a donation using our site.

Your tax-deductible gift will make a difference in the lives of many! You can make your donation online by simply clicking on "Donate Button". Any amount, great or small, helps in our effort to supports the children we greatly appreciate your support.

9:00 AM : Registration
