Buzz4Good: Giles County Foster Care

Like most places in Virginia, rural Giles County has been trying to help too many foster children with too few homes. Many must be placed in other counties hours away from their homes, schools, friends and other services, exacerbating an already traumatic experience. Thankfully, 5Points Creative in Roanoke has experience in this world, having recently helped DePaul Community Services recruit more foster families to its cause. Together — along with a familiar face from a previous episode of BUZZ — they provide Giles County with resources … and hope.

Buzz4Good airs on Blue Ridge PBS at 7 p.m.
