KC continued purchasing items with her own money and delivering them out of the trunk of her car.
After received a foster placement of two siblings with nothing more than the shirts on their backs, she realized the first night in foster care for a young child could be so much better.
Realizing that trying to help nearly 5,000 placements a year was impossible for one person, KC asked for help.
