FAMILIES ON
​THE WAITLIST

About the Waitlist

We currently have over 25 amazing families waiting to be matched in our Love Box program. Our heart at Austin Angels is to serve every family that makes the decision to foster. Our organization and families need committed and caring volunteers to step in and be part of a community of support. Check out just a few of our awesome families below and reach out with any questions about how you can get involved!
WALK ALONGSIDE A FAMILY

Meet the families:

​
Garcia Family - Round Rock
This is an incredible family with two 3 year old boys. They have one biological son and one son they are adopting soon. They would love someone to babysit so they can go on date nights and have someone to support their family in general!



Ferguson Family - Pflugerville
Lovely couple that became a kinship placement in 2020. They decided to become a licensed foster family and cared for the kiddos  for 18 months until they were reunified with their parents. Shortly after, in June of 2022, they got placement of a sibling set of four kids 4 and under! They're in need of some financial help (mainly diapers, pull ups and formula) and extra hands to help with the kids! They'd love to go on date nights occasionally but the main need is for someone who can hang out with the kids and dad during the week while mom is at work. He'd like to take the kids out more often but it's super hard since all of them require a lot of attention and care.



♡ MATCHED ♡ Martin Family - South Austin
This is a kinship foster family with 5 kiddos in the home; a 1 year old boy, 3 year old girl, 4 year old girl, 7 year old girl, and a 14 year old boy. This caregiver had previously fostered her three adoptive placements before adopting them and closing her home. She recently accepted placement of her adoptive placement's youngest sibling, with adoption being the likely outcome for this case. This family would benefit the most from a Love Box leader that could provide financial support through monthly care packages with household items, hygiene items, and meals or groceries.



♡ MATCHED ♡ Bennett Family - East Austin
This is a single mom who has 7 kids! She has one biological daughter who is 11 years old. She also takes care of her 4 nieces, they are 5, 5, 9, and 19. She has also adopted two of her younger brothers who are 7 and 9 years old. This incredible mom would like any and all support she could possibly have! She would mainly appreciate someone to hangout with the kids, love on them, and someone to help with the everyday needs through care packages, meals, and other resources!



Ferris family - Hutto
This couple has a 14 year old biological son and adopted a 9 and 12 year old girl after fostering them. After taking a break, they opened their home again and welcomed a newborn boy in 2021. They would love financial support, especially with diapers and formula, along with some snacks, crafts and hair products for the older girls. ​


♡ MATCHED ♡ Beck Family - North Austin
This caregiver is a single foster mom that is newly licensed and just received her first placement of a 2 year old boy. The first couple of nights were really rough, because he had experienced a lot of placement instability and had moved between several homes before coming to this home. He is adjusting well now, and getting much more comfortable. This caregiver has said her most important needs will be community for her foster placement and financial support. She knew fostering would be expensive, but there have been some unexpected expenses that have made things really challenging. It would be great for him to have a family that he can feel comfortable playing with, or to go on adventures together (going kayaking, paddle-boarding, getting him involved in activities). She can do these things on her own, but it would just be fun for him to have multiple adults to pour into him and friends to play with around his age.



Gonzalez - South Austin
This aunt welcomed her 5 year old nephew who is wheelchair bound into her home. She also has her own biological daughters (age 2 and 4 months). They would love a Spanish speaking volunteer who could help the caregiver connect with community resources and provide monthly care packages. 


Russell Family - Taylor
This is a super sweet family with 6 energetic boys! They have 4 biological sons and their 2 nephews. The boys range in age from 1 to 7 years old. They love all of these boys so much. This family would love any and all extra support, but someone to help out with basic necessities and babysit the boys would be fantastic! They are located in Taylor, TX!


Rodriguez Family - Manor
This is a single foster dad with 2 boys - this is his first placement so he isn't really sure of his needs just yet but he feels like financial support will benefit them in the form of the monthly love box. He thinks a LB leader who can spend time with the boys and be able to build that rapport with them to have more healthy support in their life!



Jones family - Cedar Park
This family is the definition of patience and grace. They have five biological children and have opened their home to two children experiencing foster care. They have two sons (a teen boy and a baby boy) and four daughters (10, 5, 3, and 1). This Momma elected to leave her job so she is more available and present for the children and Dad works two jobs to provide for the family. Both are heavily involved in the church. The children in the home are loving, playful, and accepting. They would love a volunteer with weeknight availability to bring over a meal or care package and watch the kids so they can have a date night!
