I have been a foster parent for more than ten-years and over five-years with Benevolence First Agency; during this time, I’ve fostered five children and have adopted one of those children and I’m in the process of adopting another one. Being a foster parent brings joy to my heart knowing that I can provide the love, structure, stability, and patience to children who may not have experienced this before.
Being a foster parent has its own rewards; knowing that a child could benefit from what you have to offer such as a home, food, and security is a wonderful feeling. So, I say to anyone who is contemplating with becoming a foster parent and it is tugging at your heart strings, to go for it, and be that light at the end of the tunnel that changes a child life.
