the need in virginia
There are nearly 5,000 children and teens in foster care in Virginia. More than 1,800 of them are between the ages of 13 and 18
Kidsave helps older kids in foster care find adoptive families and mentors in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and you can join us! Our Weekend Miracles program provides a new way to connect adoptive parents and mentors with older children and teens in foster care in Virginia. Through our Meet the Kids Events, kids and families get to know each other at their own pace, in safe, fun, and interactive environments.
Our program is launching in late October in Central and Northern Virginia. We need lots of caring adults like you who have a heart for children.

Proven Success in Creating Lifelong Bonds
Sydney and Stuart met Luna at a Weekend Miracles event in Los Angeles, and built a relationship with her over the following year. They experienced Luna’s first plane ride together, as well as her first snowfall and first trip to Disneyland. Just over a year after their first meeting, the family's adoption was finalized. “I felt a cosmic connection to Luna,” said Sydney, “and we are so happy how everything has turned out.”
