Becky Warriner, Polk DSS Child Support worker contracted through Veritas, and her husband Marty, have a heart for our children in foster care! Several years ago they donated two bikes for special Christmas presents. As they have shared this ministry opportunity with friends and family, the number of donations has increased each year. Christmas 2016 has found 18 bikes and nine helmets under the Polk DSS Christmas tree awaiting delivery to some very special children.

Santa visited our monthly foster/resource parent meeting/training last evening.  One of our little ones told Santa all he wanted was a bike! Well, Santa will be able to fulfill his wish with the special delivery made this morning! Many thanks to Becky and Marty for choosing to partner with our agency while investing in our children!
