"Teen Foster Girls PAY IT FORWARD" and need your help.....

My world fell apart March 18 of 2007 when two caseworkers and the police showed up and told me to get my things and took me to a foster home where I would be living. I was 11 years old and broken. Things were not great there either and I was moved to a new foster home; The McDonald family home. Little did I know at that time that my world was about to change for the better!

Ryan and Tiffany Mcdonald were in their mid 20s with four young children when I joined the family at 12 years old, along with my 13-year-old foster sister Rosalee.

Since the day I joined the McDonald family their dream has been to start a nonprofit organization to help more kids like me find their place and happiness in life, and build confidence through their talents and interests.

Well I am 21 years old now, I am successful! I am proud of who I am because they chose to believe in me, so slowly so did I!

I went from skipping and failing school, (amongst other not so great choices) to graduating high school with honors! They encouraged me to join the dance team at school because I told them I had a desire to dance, so I did and they supported me!

I was part of a team! They encouraged and supported me as I got a job, they helped me learn the basic skills necessary to be successful in life.

I have watched over the years so many kids come into our home broken and aimless.

I see them leave with a new sense of self-worth and confidence. It's truly amazing! Watching a tragedy turn into an inspiring success story over and over.

Well now it is my turn to help back and I need your help!

My dad Ryan has always worked so hard and made a great living to take care of all of us kids and so many others in the community. With oil prices so low, my dad's job is currently on hold.

So now they have chosen to take this time to start their dream to help SO many more kids like me in an even bigger way! The non profit foundation is called "Foster Love 4 Kids." It is there to help not only kids in foster care, but other kids who have slipped through the cracks.

My foster sisters and I wrote into the Ellen Degeneres show and they actually contacted us about our family and what we do! We have not been on the show yet, but I believe we will!

We are gaining a lot of public recognition! I chose to start this fund to help them give more kids like me a chance to explore and excel in their own dreams by providing the funding necessary to supply them with the tools, clothing, uniforms, and supplies they need, and give them the opportunity to join a team, training, or lessons in their specific areas of interest!

We hope to help them gain a stronger sense of self-worth as they focus on what they can do in life, opposed to what they can't help!

This worked for me as well as the many others I have watched my parents help because they provided the chance for us!

Slowly they are changing the world for the better and giving hope to one child at a time!

I want to help them make this HUGE and be able to reach children across the nation! I believe this will help our economy. It will be great for our future because these kids ARE OUR future leaders!

I believe in miracles now because I have seen them happen in my own life.

PLEASE help us make more miracles happen by donating to our cause today and sharing my story on Facebook and Twitter to help us raise a lot of money to change lives! All proceeds will go to Foster Love 4 kids to immediatly start changing lives! If you would like to find out more about this Foundation and what is in the works, you can email Ryntiff@yahoo.com until the website is up in the next couple of weeks! I hope to also raise awareness of the need of good foster families! To learn more about that and how you can get involved please visit utahfostercare.org

Thank you for your time and donations,
