🎒📚 It's Back to School Time! What?! It's only June! 📚🎒

August 12 (First Day of School) will be here before we know it! That means backpacks need to be prepped and ready for our families before then. We'd love for you to put a backpack together or order some bulk items from our Amazon Wish List. Backpacks give a child dignity and confidence on their first day of school.

Be a part of something great this school year! 🌟💼

🌟 We love when groups come to volunteer at Olive Crest, but it's even more special when it's a group of kids! 🌟
Recently, we had 11 amazing kids from Iglesia Amigos, along with a couple of our foster kids, join in to make hygiene bags and clean toys. They had so much fun and also learned a bit about what Olive Crest does to help families and keep kids safe!
Thank you, Iglesia Amigos, for your support and enthusiasm. Together, we’re making a difference! 💚

Many thanks to .S. Bank for its support of Olive Crest’s Teen and Young Adult Transitional Housing Program. We recently received a $12,500 grant from the U.S. Bank Foundation, which will help teens and young adults who have aged out of the foster system launch successfully into adulthood.

📣 Meet John, one of our awesome volunteers at Olive Crest!

John has been volunteering with us for about a year and a half, initially helping around the office. As we needed more hands for picking up and delivering furniture to clients, John stepped up and answered the call whenever he could.

Over the past six months, John has also become a mentor to Jacob*. Despite his full-time job as a Southwest pilot, John always volunteers with a smile. As a mentor, he's been helping Jacob work towards getting his driver's license. Last week, we received an excited text from John sharing the fantastic news that Jacob had passed his driver's test! This accomplishment is a testament to the great relationship they’ve built together.

Want to get involved and make a difference like John? Join us for our Volunteer Orientation on Wednesday, June 12 at 6 PM or Saturday, June 29 at 10 AM. Register at https://www.olivecrest.org/get-involved-individual/! We are presently looking for a few more men to become mentors right now.

Thankful Thursday Part 2! So thankful for this group from Resorts International who came and helped put cleaning supply buckets together for us! As you can see, we are well stocked for a few weeks! These buckets help families have the tools they need to keep their homes clean, which ultimately, keeps families together.

Thankful Thursday! So thankful for this group of of America employees who recently helped put together a number of Birthday Bags for us to have on hand. Part of what Olive Crest does is to help families "normalize" their situations. Being able to celebrate a birthday with a cake, candles, a birthday banner and more is one small way we can do that.

REALITY: It’s incredible what a structured environment and support system can do for a child. Foster and adoptive parents have the ability to positively impact a child who has experienced trauma, teach them healthy coping skills and help them grow into a thriving individual. At Olive Crest, we offer training, weekly in-home support from our Family Specialists, Family Support Groups, and even counseling!

Find out more about becoming a foster parent and the “truths” at our Foster Info Sessions. Go to https://champion.olivecrest.org/nv-info/ for more info. Foster Care Myth: I can’t have pets.
Reality: Many foster parents have pets. All domesticated animals must have proof of current Rabies Vaccination. Many foster children respond well to pets. Pets can be a source of comfort and affection to a child who has been hurt or abused.
Again, Go to https://champion.olivecrest.org/nv-info/ for more info on fostering.

Meet Vincent* and Violet*, two siblings placed in foster care. It is always the goal to keep siblings together. Unfortunately, the family caring for these two didn’t feel equipped to handle Vincent’s behavioral challenges. The family wanted to continue caring for Violet, but asked to find another placement for Vincent (this is called a disruption). Olive Crest stepped in and placed Vincent with one of our families where he began to thrive, disproving these claims and showing his true nature—compliant, happy, and eager to be part of a family.
Recognizing this positive change, and Olive Crest’s family being open to adding Violet to their home as well, Vincent's caseworker facilitated their reunification. Now, with continued therapy and support, Vincent and Violet are inseparable. Their foster family, initially unsure about the transition, is now filled with joy seeing the siblings together again.
Their story is a testament to the power of love, therapy, and family. Want to make a difference? Go to www.olivecrest.org
