Help Preserve an Adoptive Placement

A great aunt and a grandmother (sisters) adopted a total of 5 siblings. They live in the same home and do everything they can to meet all of the children's needs. Two of the siblings are autistic and require specialized care and attention. Three of the children are eligible and would love to go to the Boys and Girls Club throughout the summer. This would give the caregivers the ability to focus on the child with the highest exceptional needs, while the others are able to spend their days having fun and learning at the Boys and Girls Club. The children can attend at a special rate of $30 each per week. The caregivers' finances are extremely tight. We are asking for one month for now, as the caregivers try identify ways to cover the rest of the summer. The children would love to start next week if possible. Donations can be paid directly to the Murray Co Boys and Girls Club, and we will provide you with the information. Thank you so much!
