From Connie: "I am a college student, wife, mama of two super amazing kiddos (adopted via kinship foster care), dog mama, 3rd generation former foster youth, mental health & foster care advocate. I like books,I can spend HOURS in a book store, writing, lake trips, singing, dancing, music, photography, boats, comedy shows, kickboxing, and llamas, they are sooo cute! My hopes and dreams are to raise my kids to be kind, thoughtful and empowered human beings, graduate college with honors, launch my own foundation to support foster families, youth and alumni, author a book, learn to swim, ride a bike and drive, travel to Spain to visit my big sis, and Italy for a long overdue honeymoon with my hubby, break the generational cycle of foster care placement in my family, and give myself grace. My all time favorite quote is "To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to leave the world a better place, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived, this is to have succeeded." by Ralph Waldo Emerson"

LovedBy Boxes are a beautiful way to spread some love to One Simple Wish Advisory Council members who have spent time in foster care. These awesome humans provide feedback on our programs, advise us on policy matters and share new ideas on how we can help the next generation of young people who are currently in foster care. To say thanks and "we love you", we will be sending them seasonal gift boxes filled with all kinds of goodies from our amazing supporters. This wish covers the cost of the box, shipping and a few fun fillers! If you want to know more about how to collect or donate items to these boxes, email danielle@onesimplewish.org anytime!
