Children's Home Society of Florida These are the children we protect and love: A 5-yr-old who asks, "Do you have a family? I don't have a family b/c my mommy doesn't want me anymore." A trio of brothers who can hardly contain their excitement b/c they see a pantry full of food at our Crisis Nursery. http://bit.ly/5teX19 This holiday season, we are so gr...ateful for our friends who help us help our children.

Children's Home Society of Florida Just yesterday, Orlando Magic's Ryan Anderson and J.J. Redick took 50 of our children from the Central Florida Division on a super special shopping spree! Not only did the two players donate gift cards for the kids, but they also accompanied them during their shopping trip at Target! Our kids surely had a *magical* experience! http://bit.ly/8IkTGK

Children's Home Society of Florida More than 800 teenagers "age out" of foster care every year -- at 18, they're expected to be responsible, independent adults ... fortunately, CHS has transitional and independent living programs to help! Keep these teens in mind this year when you're out shopping ... everyone deserves a little holiday cheer!
