Our small group of volunteers excitedly made the trip to Austin, MN, to the headquarters of Hormel Foods. We packed suitcases with snacks and toiletries; Our goal was to support and encourage the foster children of a group home in Rochester, MN.
We arrived and were immediately hopeful as we entered the building and met the inspiring children that lived at the group home. We attended a development class with them and were mesmerized as we heard about their aspirations for the future.
Foster care outreach is of utmost importance on a national level to ensure these children are adequately supported and that their dreams for the future remain in sight. This short trip has highlighted for us the power of community involvement and inspiring children in need who need some help and encouragement along the way.
