Thank you, Lemonwood Missionary Baptist Church!

Yesterday, Luther and Virginia Drye delivered six brand new coats to the Jefferson County Foster Care Coalition’s care closet, and we are so grateful 🥳🥳🥳

These coats will go directly to children and families who need them, and the generosity that got them here matters more than most people realize.

I want to share a little bit of backstory, because this is what community looks like: simple connections, shared purpose, people talking to people.

Mr. and Mrs. Drye learned about us through a conversation at First Baptist Church while dropping off food for the White Hall Food Pantry. Word of mouth and friendly referrals are how much of this work happens, and we’re thankful for every connection.

If you’re reading this, thank you for being part of our community. We’re glad you’re here 💙

Today was Christmas magic.

Not the kind that comes from perfect movies or matching pajamas, but the kind that shows up when people care for one another in real, practical ways. Through the Toy Swap, more than 45 kids will have gifts under the tree this year. Gifts their families chose with care, without pressure, and without having to sacrifice something else to make it happen. From newborns to teens, we had something for everyone, because of YOU.

Your generosity is what makes this possible and we are immensely grateful. Thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, and everyone who walked through our doors today. You helped make room for hope and for the kind of Christmas magic that lasts longer than the season.

Our friends at the Arkansas Division of Children and Family Services heard we were hosting a foster care shopping event today and absolutely hooked us up with an incredible supply of resources!

From diapers and safety gates to car seats and snuggly squishmallows, these are the things that make new placements feel a little less scary, keep kids safe, and help families say yes to foster care — and keep saying yes.

✨ Special thanks to Keisha Smith, Area VII DCFS Resource Supervisor, for making sure we were well prepared to serve resource families today. Your partnership, dedication, and heart for this work make all the difference. ✨

We’re so grateful for the continued collaboration with DCFS and the shared mission of supporting children and families in Arkansas. 💙
