In celebration of National Foster Care Awareness Month this May, we wanted to share some information you can use to get involved on these remaining days. Centered around youth advocacy, the Idaho Youth Ranch works with families and children to ensure they have access to the help, resources, and education they need to positively change the trajectory of their life. With nearly 1,800 children living in the Idaho foster care system, it’s never too late get involved by giving back!

Last winter, the Anchor House in Coeur d’Alene was able to make several much-needed facility improvements thanks to the generosity of the Women’s Gift Alliance (WGA). The WGA awarded Anchor House a $25,250 grant for renovations that included installation of a new sprinkler system for the lawn and indoor improvements to living areas, such as new paint and furniture. The goal was to make the residential treatment facility feel more homey and welcoming for the boys to help them heal from and triumph over their struggles with substance abuse.
