Tips
Luggage, or bags are always appreciated so children do not have to use trash bags to carry their belongings as they travel to a new foster home. Personalized touches make a huge difference. For embroidered items, Southside Embroidery does outstanding personalized work. For stamps, Modern Maker Stamps creates stamps with names, designs and more, making the child’s day even more special.
