Dear Ms. Jones,

On behalf of the Division of Family Services, I would like to thank you for your outstanding support of Delaware’s children in foster care. I wanted to thank you for your efforts….It made a huge impact on the children. This is the type of positive memory that will last throughout their lives. Your organizational skill …exemplifies a genuine caring and giving spirit.

There are over 800 children and teens in Delaware’s foster care system. These young people not only need support from the state system and foster parents, but also the community. This is why we at the Division of Family Services are so grateful that you have extended a helping hand.

Our vision is for every child to have safety, stability, self esteem, and a sense of hope. In all that we do, we “Think of the Child First.” It is gratifying to know that, through your generous support of our children, you also share our vision.

Once again, thank you.

Sincerely,

Laura Miles

Dear Caroline,

My foster child and his mother chose 3 shows from the DSO brochure you sent.

This all happened at his review hearing yesterday. I wish I could have taken a picture of the smile on his face. I wish you could have seen the excitement as he and his mother decided which performances they would like best. I can tell you how good I felt being able to talk to him about something special and not the usual problems that come with being in foster care. This is such a wonderful opportunity and I thank you.
