 # Thriving in a Loving Home, What Every Child Deserves and YOU Can Help

 


 

 May 16, 2018 2:00 PM ET

  Campaign:  [DTFA: Foster Care Adoption Awareness](/news/campaign/dtfa-foster-care-adoption-awareness)  ![](https://3blcdn.com/styles/carousel_2x/s3/2026-08/Blandford_Family_1786870135.jpg)

 

Imagine spending a year and a half not knowing if the bed you slept in one night would be the bed you sleep in the next night.  
  
That’s reality for the more than 430,000 children in foster care in North America, but the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption knows that these children can have a bright future. More than 117,000 children living in foster care need to be adopted right now.

Children like Mason who were put in the foster care system at birth are receiving the gift of family because of the work we are doing throughout the US and Canada.

Mason is now four years old and thriving in his loving home.

Please help us make a difference in the lives of children waiting to be adopted from foster care.
