Description
The Love Box program provides foster families with community and holistic support so that they can continue to do the important and meaningful work of being a foster parent. As a Love Box group, volunteers will be matched with a local foster family based on compatibility and scope of needs. When our families are matched with committed volunteers who show up monthly, parents feel more supported and children gain a greater sense of belonging and self-confidence.

Long-term Success
The Love Box Program was designed to help create support and community for children and families involved in the foster care system. This is to prevent children in foster care from being moved around from home to home so often. Many foster homes close within a year due to a lack of support, and with intentional giving and relationship building we hope to transform the way families experience the foster care system.
Program Areas Served
Davidson County, Williamson County, Wilson County, Maury County, Sumner County, Robertson County, Rutherford County

Description
The heart of the Dare to Dream program is to walk alongside youth as they navigate through life's challenges. The youth in our Dare to Dream program need the wisdom, advice, encouragement, and community that mentors can provide. Mentors meet practical and emotional needs as well as provide guidance through developmental milestones. The goal is for youth to be engaged and to feel supported and equipped to navigate life. A mentor commits to meeting with the youth every other week to set goals and help them achieve their dreams. We tell mentors that the simple act of telling their youth "I believe in you," "You are special," and "You are going to do great things" can change their path completely.
