MORE ABOUT THE TOUR: It’s hard to believe, but there are currently over 30,000 children in the Texas Foster Care System. Even harder to believe is that nearly 5,000 of those children are currently available for adoption. By the time they turn 18 it’s too late, they are left to face the world alone without the love and support of a forever family. Never before have local leaders, government, and the faith community been so unified around changing the lives of foster children. We have the resources and the vision. Now we need you to step in and help provide “A Place to Stay” for every child in need in our state.
“A Place to Stay” is a Texas-wide concert tour designed to raise awareness for children in the foster care system while educating community members on how to become part of the solution. The initiative features:
– 12 concert tour stops in communities across Texas headlined by country music stars and featuring songs from The Foster EP
--The Foster EP is a collection of songs, written and performed by Kyle Hutton and iconic Texas singer/songwriter Radney Foster, for the purpose of exploring the emotions and realities of the Texas Foster Care System.
– Media designed to highlight the needs and organizations in each community along the tour
– Partnering opportunities for local foster/adoption nonprofits and ministries that will increase visibility of local foster care leaders
