Coalition in Action - 06.09.09 Minimize
Growing up in foster care, 17-year-old Tommy had no one to attend his high school graduation. His Extreme Recruitment team was determined that he would have a family member there, but all leads had been exhausted except one: a great-aunt in Indiana. The team hopped in the car, and met with her for four hours. Great-aunt knew of some relatives in St. Louis who could help. Bleary eyed from their all-night drive back, they introduced Tommy to his 28-year old cousin the next day. With a big smile, she said, “If you will have me, I would like to be at your graduation.” Not only did she keep her promise, but seven other family members cheered him on, too.  Last Friday was the first time in his life that Tommy felt embraced by his family… what a wonderful graduation gift!
