We had an amazing time celebrating our graduating youth with the help of Cargo Services Inc., Indianapolis Colts, Meijer and Indiana Department Of Child Services. Every grad received awesome gifts, a personalized cake, and a mini Colts helmet. At the event, they got to meet Blue, play on the practice field, and even try some field goals out! Thank you to our partners for helping host a special night celebrating foster youth ✨
