Last May, Parker White launched this effort as a way to help children aged 3-17 who are transitioning from traumatic situations. She says it's an unmet need. "In 2010-2011, there were approximately 565 children in Guilford County placed in foster care, and recently, the Guilford County School System reported more than 2,000 children have experienced homelessness," explains Parker. "I think any of us who are parents cannot imagine children going through a traumatic situation and not having something as simple as their own stuffed animal, a blanket or a book to comfort them."
