Amanda’s mom abused meth. Child Protective Services removed her after they found Amanda malnourished, neglected and living in a filthy house. She was only four years old.

Amanda was placed at Jonathan’s Place after years of bouncing between foster families, and has lived in our girls residential program since 2012. In August, she started high school and tried out for her school’s volleyball team. She made it! We have been beaming with pride since!

As with most extra-curricular activities, there are extra costs. Your donations will help us cover those fees – like uniforms, shoes and travel (which are not cheap). Like any loving parent, we never want to be in a situation where we have to say “no” because we can’t afford to support their passion.
