Comfort Cases is thrilled to share a recent and very prominent news feature on yesterday's CBS Evening News:
If ever we could share with you how impactful and meaningful your support is and what an impact you make, this is it! Please watch the segment while it's still available online to learn more about our latest accomplishments as well as to learn more about our Founder, Dr. Rob Scheer, and about youth like Ashley Baker who grew up in more than a dozen Pennsylvania foster homes and attended seven high schools.
"To carry your stuff in a trash bag, it makes you feel like this is your fault, you're worth nothing, none of this stuff is worth anything to anyone else," Baker said. Just like Rob, she was also given a trash bag each time she moved. But things are slowly shifting. In the past two years, Maryland, Texas and Oregon have all banned the use of trash bags in foster care. Similar legislation was recently introduced in New York City.
This work we are doing together, with your support, is not only meaningful it is life-changing.
Please continue to support this mission, knowing that your being a good human truly matters!
