Day 2. What is my favorite community platform.

My favorite community platform is the foster care system. I am an aunt to 8 amazing nieces and nephews that came to us through foster care. I believe every child should be able to have an amazing child hood. This platform is very close to my heart and I believe that it take some amazing people to be foster parents. .
