New program to deliver bags, luggage to foster kids in need
A new statewide project is calling attention to an aspect of moving children into foster care that's often overlooked. “Carry-On” will collect new and gently-used bags and suitcases for children in foster care across the state.
Awww. How nice.
“There are around 4,000 children in foster care, and for so many of them to carry their belongings in garbage is just not right—it’s not okay, and we shouldn’t accept it,” Robey said. “And so we’re trying to eliminate garbage bags as an acceptable form of luggage for children in foster care.”
Perhaps they should eliminate the bouncing of children from home to home to home. Perhaps if they weren't stealing so many kids, it wouldn't be as much of an issue.
