As we have stated over and over, we have been truly blessed with an outstanding community that is full of talented, kind, caring, and supportive people! We recognize that we wouldn’t be where we are today without them, so in honor of the month of giving and kindness (and an awesome year!), Wade Works Creative is giving back! We are so excited to donate a custom built seesaw to SAFFT (Supporting Adoption & Foster Families Together, inc.). Today when we delivered the seesaw, we had so much fun trying it on for size!  We are thrilled to know that the kids in the SAFFT program will be able to enjoy this fun activity while they are there!

A little bit about SAFFT and their incredible mission:

SAFFT is a 501(c)3 organization with a mission to protect children, rebuild families, and empower caregivers.

Protecting Children

They have created an environment like nowhere else in the State of Georgia to protect society’s most neglected and abused children. These children are protected and served through their Family Life Center that provides family and sibling visitations, a clothing and resource closet, scholarships, and a powerful life skills and mentoring program that builds them up.

Rebuilding Families

Their journey begins when the doorbell rings at our center and a broken family walks through the door for the first time. Instead of trying to fit a family into a particular model, SAFFT serves the family based on their unique circumstances. They offer families in crisis safe supervised and supportive visitations, domestic violence services, parenting and life skills education, a mentoring program that provides life coaching, Celebrate Freedom classes, a career closet, transportation, and emergency aid.

Empowering Caregivers

SAFFT offers these amazing caregivers critical support during and after their journey such as monthly support meetings, a supportive network, education and training, meals for a new placement, and respite care. SAFFT believes one of the best ways to support a foster child is to ensure that their foster or adoptive family is successful and empowered.
