May is Foster Care Awareness month and we are bringing Awareness this Sunday, May 24the at 12:30pm Cornerstone Church Athens and Cornerstone Church Foster Care Ministry are hosting Uniting Hope for their Foster Care Lunch & Learn! Registration required - if you are in the Athens-Clarke County/Oconee or surrounding counties (Region5) and have thought about becoming a foster parent or wanted to know how you can help the Foster Care Community please join us!

The average # of children in foster care in ACC is about 200+ with only 23 active licensed foster families... those are hard facts to ignore!

The real problem: In Athens Clarke County, we are dealing with a foster care crisis & a displacement crisis. When a child is removed from their home and then removed from their city, they lose their school, their friends, and their school support systems.

Here is the registration link:

Foster. Adopt. Mentor. Advocate. Volunteer. Donate. Pray.

Join us for a Uniting Hope Foster Care & Adoption Information Luncheon on Sunday, May 24th. Discover how you can make a difference in the life of a child. Register here
