Reel Hope Project | Helping Foster Children to get Adopted
 
Mary is grateful for the opportunity to give a voice and hope to youth who are waiting for families. Originally from Minneapolis, Mary has worked internationally with organizations supporting youth without families as well as youth with physical and mental disabilities. She loves to discover the expression of beauty and truth that each child possesses, and is delighted to introduce the stories of the waiting kids in Minnesota’s foster care system to families across the state.
 
The goal of the Reel Hope Project is to make a video for every child in foster care who is waiting to be adopted. In 2016, we launched in Minnesota. Today, we are actively expanding our mission and serving kids in other states across the country.
We travel anywhere in our focus states to meet these incredible kids and capture their stories. We work with each youth’s team to create a compelling video that celebrates the youth’s personality and unique qualities.
Social workers share our reels with potential adoptive families, and we share the reels at weekly events. Join us in sharing these kids’ stories on our social media platforms!
