STORIES FROM THE FIELD

​OF THE SPOKANE ANGELS COMMUNITY!

our community going above and beyond

​Every so often, families on our waitlist have pressing needs that encourage us to reach out to our volunteer community in an attempt to fill that need. 

This is a story about a group of volunteers who went above and beyond for two very special families on our waitlist.

In October Spokane Angels put out an ask on social media for two, one-time Love Boxes for families in foster care who had recently applied to our Love Box program. Since the families were both on our waitlist, they were not receiving the support of monthly love boxes. Both of the families had similar immediate needs, groceries (or funds for groceries), household staples, and clothes for their children (or funds for clothing). We immediatey had at least five volunteers reach out and volunteer to help as needed. One volunteer graciously took on one of the families with a Love Box filled with Fall and Halloween themed activities, as well as several gift cards so they could go shopping for the 4 kids in the home. For the other family, three volunteers worked together to collect some household items like groceries, cleaning supplies, and hygeine products. Several of the volunteers also included gift cards for groceries and gas. The single foster mom and two kids who we collected the items for was overjoyed to receive the Love Box, and said it came just when they needed it. 

Thank you to our volunteers for showing up for families in foster care! You are making the difference!
