About 10 years ago, I took classes on becoming a foster parent. Little did I know I would become a parent to Tatum, a brand new beautiful baby girl. However, I never lost my passion to help in the Foster Care system.
Fast forward to now, Scottsdale Bible has become very passionate about this cause as well. Here in AZ, there are over 16,000 children in the system. It’s overwhelming, and there is so much that can be done. Gigi’s Cottage is for girls in the Arizona foster care system that are ages 7-18 and provides housing for up to nine girls. Through new combined efforts, SBC will provide administrative and operational support to assist the Gigi’s Cottage team to help these girls move in a positive direction and experience the love of Jesus.
Our small group decided to adopt this cottage and help them in any way. The first way we could help would be to make gift baskets for the girls.
We had so much fun making these! Delivery would be on November 11th, Veteran’s Day. Tatum and I would deliver. One of our small group ladies, Julie Miller, joined us. We couldn’t wait!
We loaded up Brady, headed to Einstein’s to meet Julie, and headed out.
We arrived at 9am at this adorable little home.
We met three of the girls and two of the volunteers. They were overjoyed!
We loved the living room and dining room! So cozy and comfortable for them.
Thank you for allowing us to help you all. We have so much more to come.
