Client Stories
It's always beautiful to see a child smile after receiving a new toy, clothing, or books. The joy we see in the families after leaving A Precious Child is amazing, and we love to share some simple moments with you.
Bobby was a foster child for a long time until one of our longtime agency partner clients adopted him a few months ago. Bobby and his sister kept our program staff bouncing while they enjoyed a fun-filled afternoon at our Resource Center going through bin after bin of our sports equipment and toys. Bobby's search for just the right toy came to a screeching halt when he discovered two adorable horses. They were promptly named Harriet and Bigfoot and now live in his barn. While he and his family were here we were able to give mom a birthday bag (complete with cake mix, icing, candles, and a gift card for ice cream generously donated by Sunrise Senior Living) and two birthday gifts for his 5 year old sister!
