Care Packages Being Received

We received an update from Lynn Davis (OFA):

The care packages have begun to arrive!!!!! The students are sooooooooooo happy! (Emphasis on the “sooooooooooo”)

Here are a few of the quotes we have gotten these last two days:

“Send my thank you to whoever put together my care package, I am so grateful!!” - Katiemae (NY)

“Just wanted to say Thank You for the care package that I received today! I Love Girl Scout Cookies! (I was A Girl Scout all through elementary school. Selling cookies was my fave). . . .Thank You!” - Samantha (NC)

"I was just wanting to thank all the little girl scouts who sent those yummy cookies to me.... Thank you so much!!" - Chelsey (OH)

“Thanks for the care package. The kids and I enjoyed the snacks and mac and cheese. Alexandria was delighted to see all her favorites (fruit snacks and cheez its ) come in the mail. She smiled and said, ‘Mommy, a package for me?’ Thanks again, very thoughtful of you all at OFA” - LaQuana (NY)

The students are all really grateful for all the support we give them. And when I say “we” I mean you as part of the “we”. OFA could not do it all alone. OFA relies on you to help us. So all the thanks go out to the big “WE” – You , me and all the folks that make these care packages possible.

Have a great weekend and treat yourself well because you have made a lot of former foster youth VERY HAPPY and feel VERY SPECIAL!
