Goal

I’m One of the 100: Will help me raise $1,000 for Crossroads to support kids & families in foster care?


From 2016 to 2023, we fostered kids ages 5 to 19. Crossroads was with me every step of the way, and they're still with us now through adoption. They provided training, meals, support, camps, and introduced me to families who became my community. One time, when they asked what I needed, I jokingly said “dark chocolate salted caramels,” and guess what showed up in my mailbox? That’s who they are: real, present, and always showing up with compassion.


This year, Crossroads is calling on 100 moms (and aunties, sisters, and friends!) to raise or donate $1,000 to support children in foster care across Louisiana. I'm committed to reaching this goal by December, and I’d be honored if you'd partner with me.


Here’s how you can help:

  • Give a one-time donation to help me reach $1,000.

  • Or sign up to give $25/month from August to December—small gifts add up and make a huge impact.

  • Share this fundraiser with others who care about kids and the community.

Every dollar you give helps Crossroads create safe, connected families—families like mine.
