SUMMARY:Fostering 5K 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Fostering 5K is more than a race—it’s an opportunity to bring our community together around one shared mission: ensuring that every child has the opportunity to experience the love\, safety\, and stability of a family. \nToday\, more than 1\,400 children in East Texas are in foster care\, and many are waiting for loving foster families to open their homes. Others are hoping for the day they find a permanent\, forever family through adoption. These children are our neighbors\, and together\, we can help bring hope in their story. \nFunds raised through the Fostering 5K directly support the mission of The Fostering Collective as we recruit and shepherd Christ-centered foster and adoptive families\, advocate for children in need of permanent homes through Heart Gallery East Texas\, and provide ongoing support\, resources\, training\, and encouragement to foster\, adoptive\, and kinship families across East Texas. \nWe hope our community will join us—not only to run or walk\, but to stand with us in raising awareness for the urgent needs that exist right here in our own backyard. Your sponsorship is an investment in children\, families\, and a stronger East Texas community. Together\, we can ensure that families are equipped to say “yes\,” children are seen and advocated for\, and no family walks this journey alone. \nThank you for partnering with us to serve\, advocate for\, and care for the children and families who need us most. Together\, we truly are making a lasting difference—one child\, one family\, and one step at a time. \nRegister for the Fostering 5K Race Here \nBecome a Sponsor for the Race Here

SUMMARY:Tyler Family Collective
DESCRIPTION:Scripture tells us that God is close to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18) and that God notices and remembers every tear (Psalm 56:8). Grief is not a sign that something is wrong with a child (or a caregiver). It is a sign that love and connection mattered. The loss is real\, but it is not the whole story. Every of us is known\, valued\, and worth caring for. This month\, we will help you and your kiddos understand how grief shows up in our brains and bodies\, practice skills that help us care for big feelings\, and experience safe relationships where we can remember\, hope\, and be supported. \nOur Family Collective is our support group for foster\, adoptive and kinship families. Quarterly\, we gather for pizza and salad\, then break off into sessions by age/grade. Each session is led by local therapists who are trauma informed and want to support our families. If you are coming but not planning to have dinner\, please email Laura@TheFosteringCollective.org. \nLocation – South Spring Baptist Church 17002 Hwy 69 in Tyler.\nDinner will be served from 5:30-6:00pm. Sessions will run from 6:00 – 7:00pm. \nContact Tiffany Davault at Tiffany@TheFosteringCollective.org or 903.253.9144 for more information. \nRegister Here
