“Don’t be scared to ask for help. If not for you, do it for your kids. You’ll look back and be proud of what you’ve accomplished.”
“After working at Velotecha, I developed new skills, I know more things about bikes than I ever thought I would. I know a whole other trade now and I helped to build a business.”
“The people and programs at The Link gave me the chance to envision a different future for myself and my family.”
“The drum group helped me realize that together, we help each other grow and we give each other strength.”
“I couldn’t have done it without my foster parents.”
“The best part about fostering is when a child comes to you and says ‘I love you.'”
