Dearn Angels Friend,

 

Seven injured, neglected and/or abandoned babies were placed with Angels families in just the last month.  Two were severely battered with life-threatening injuries,  four were either drug exposed inutero, severely neglected, or had parents arrested and unable to care for them.  While these children came to us with broken bones, broken hearts and spirits, their healing began immediately when they were placed with their Angels families.
 
Baby girl No. 321, picked up by Angels social workers from her daycare, arrived at the Angels office, where her diaper change revealed a seriously neglected and infected diaper rash.  She was never seen by a doctor while in the care of her former foster family.  She spent her days in a daycare center while her foster mom worked full time, and cared for several other foster children.  Children who are removed from their birth parents for neglect and abuse suffer tremendously, but when they are reinjured by the very system that promised them a safe and nurturing home, they become the biggest victims of all. 
 
While we embrace each of these 7 little victims, we are saddened at the other 10 babies we had to turn away in just this past month!  Abused babies desperately need Angels and we need more quality foster families.  Please consider how you might help us to help more babies in need.  
 
Warmly,
