Forward Paths Foundation in Leesburg -- 352-800-9863 They are an organization that assists children aging out of foster care or homeless to get them a place to live and teach life skills. Life skills such as how to apply for a job, interview, get a bank account, etc. They are in great need of Mentors. I have a 19 year old that I am mentoring. She was about to drop out of high school last year, but through encouragement from me, she stuck with it and graduated!! Please consider donating, volunteering or assisting this wonderful, much needed, organization. If you are unaware, when a child becomes 18 in foster care, they are "kicked out" into the world.

We send our furniture donations to Habitat for Humanity. In fact they are coming next Thursday to pick up a big wooden shelving unit.
