The Bakers have welcomed 70 children into their home over the last fifteen years. They are giving, patient, kind and forgiving. They accept youth the way they are and help them believe in the limitless possibilities of the future. They give every foster youth tools they need to be their best and prepare them for the twists and turns that life always presents.
Great people like the Bakers deserve recognition for all they've done as foster parents. Thanks to
Lancaster Painting of Turlock, that well-deserved recognition came in the form of an exterior paint job valued at $6,000. The Bakers were nominated as recipients of
Lancaster Painting's Paint it Forward contest by Aspiranet social workers Sharon Salaiz and Sandra Genova.
Forty community volunteers showed up at the Baker's home Saturday, Feb. 25th ready to paint. In just a few hours, the work was complete. The Baker's home now matches the beauty found inside as they care for foster youth.
Thank you,
Lancaster Painting, Light House Communications,
Paul's Paint Company and
Sherwin-Williams making Paint it Forward a reality.
