Friendly reminder this back to school season...❤️‍🩹

Not every student may have had a "good break" over the summer. For kids in foster care, school could be the most consistent place in their world right now.

This month, OneCity pastors gathered to hear from Summit County Children Services and Hope Bridge about tangible ways we can love the least of these in Akron.

At Love Akron, we believe that love begins with the who, not the what.

Before foster care is a system, it's a child.

Before family support is a program, it's a family.

Before a need is a statistic, it's a person.

If you're feeling a tap on your shoulder, move forward. Foster. Support a foster family. Show up for a child in need.

Join a Foster Care Information Meeting on June 11 or June 25 to learn more:
