Help Stephanie raise money

For participating in 2019 Chosen Half Marathon and 5K

Together we will transform a child's life.

Many of you know our journey with adoption and foster care, so I will skip the majority of the details... Chosen is one of the only organizations that we trust enough to give consistently our time, money, and talent. Please consider doing the same for my first (and probably last!) half marathon!

Description

Every day nearly 5,000 children are in foster care within San Antonio and surrounding communities, and 50% of foster parents will quit after just a single year and 20% of adoptions fail, due to the lack of post placement support. 
 
Our goal: The Chosen Effect -- zero foster care disruptions and zero adoption dissolutions, meaning a family does not quit and put a child back in the system, which creates further loss and trauma.
 
With your help we provide healing for children who have experienced trauma from abuse and neglect, and hope for their families. 
 
Your gift will provide:
 
Trauma-informed action plan
Trauma-informed parent coaching 
Therapy from mental health providers
Peer mentoring support
 
We can't do this without YOU, be a Chosen CHAMPION and give today!
