Last Friday Dorie’s Promise received two more children.
Danielle (age 3) and Jose (18 months) will be calling House 5 of Dorie’s Promise their home until their next court hearing in February. Their mother ran away leaving their grandfather as their sole provider. The grandfather has had great difficulty providing for the children. Last week he had to make a difficult choice to give up his grandchildren.
The children have struggled to adjust at Dorie’s Promise. They desperately miss their grandpa. Danielle is a little girl who is very observant and will do anything to make sure Jose is safe. She truly loves and protects her brother and it has been neat to see the special bond between them.
One of Danielle’s favorite things about being at Dorie’s Promise is having a hot bath. Giving Danielle a hot bath was like handing her a gift to open on Christmas day. That experience was precious and sad at the same time.
The greatest gift we can give these children right now is the gift of love and safety. Please join me in doing that by supporting our work here.
