Join me for a couple fun hours to be a CHAMPION FOR KIDS!
This year I am hiking (well, walking, really) to help older kids in foster care right in Virginia to find permanent, loving families and lasting connections!
My hope is to raise at least $1,500 to support Kidsave’s proven programs that tackle a hidden but huge world challenge – families for kids growing up alone..
Over 440,000 kids in the US and 8 million worldwide are in child welfare systems like foster programs and orphanages.
Since 1999, this work has positively impacted the lives of well over half a million children worldwide.
I want to give kids the chance to start a new chapter and live a life of hope, love, and acceptance! Kids just like Luna who was adopted in January 2024 after being in foster care for years. Luna met her Mom and Dad, Stuart and Sydney, at the Kidsave Hike in Los Angeles in 2022. It was an instant connection!

Kidsave has trained governments, social workers, and local non-profit organizations in the US and abroad to implement its effective, adaptable Family Visit Model. Kidsave’s model inspires communities to become part of the solution and is at work on four continents.
In the US, we are helping older, forgotten kids in foster care in Los Angeles, Houston, and now Virginia, find adoptive parents and lasting connections to caring adults.
It will be a fun, easy hike around Theodore Roosevelt Island in the Potomac. You can register here! If you can’t make it but would like to make a donation, that would be greatly appreciated! Hope to see you on Nov. 9th!
With love and gratitude,
Bonnie
