The Heart Gallery helps kids find homes
"The Heart Gallery features portraits of hope that touch the
heart."
"The hope is that these photographs will inspire people to
consider adoption."
|
"I'm just waiting for the perfect home. I just keep waiting
for the perfect one at the right time. Maybe when I get older,
I might take a foster kid and adopt them so if I'm not going
to get helped, I'm going to help someone else. So any way I
win."
|
"Organizers of Heart Galleries around the country are trying
to raise awareness in some creative ways. |
