According to Together We Rise, 1,200 kids enter foster care in the U.S. TWR brings together volunteers to help kids who are in foster care, and it inspires families to adopt them. All the volunteers are quite young, actually: "In 2008, TWR was founded by college students after one of their classmates discovered that their 9 year-old cousin was living in a car," states TWR. "They wanted to do something but they came across some obstacles because they were all under the age of 21. Government agencies denied their help due to Federal regulations. There were no organizations like TWR that welcomed young people to join their efforts."

No argument here. Thanks for your lovely comment, dear LUCInka.
Dear JET,
You're so kind. Thanks for droppin' by.
Dearest setareh,
Sometimes you need to be the first one who tries something. Trust me, others will follow you like lemmings. If you wanna adopt a kid; as Nike says, "Just do it"! Ha! ThanKs for your lovely comment.
It's tragic, actually.
It speaks for itself.
