From Jedd Medefind of CAFO: "My friend Doug Sauder, President of CAFO member 4KIDS of South Florida, recently shared with me a profound letter.  It was written by a woman who served families and children  through 4KIDS for 5+ years.  She read it to the 4KIDS teams during their weekly devotions as she prepared to depart for a new role.   It expresses well the way joy and ache so tightly interweave in the lives of those who open themselves to loving foster youth and others among the “fatherless.”"

Read this insightful letter.
