Project Sunshine: Foster Home Edition!

Project Sunshine: Foster Home Edition is a fundraiser and service project all in one! 

After children are removed from their homes they often wait for hours in agency rooms until a foster home is located. The rooms are also used for weekly visitation between the children and their birth parents while they are in care. Project Sunshine was birthed out of a desire to create friendly spaces for kids during this dark time in their lives.  

Project Sunshine: Foster Home Edition simply takes the Project Sunshine concept  and applies it to a foster parent's home and at the same time raises funds for The Forgotten Initiative!
