We got a call Friday at 3 p.m. and the kids arrived at 7… a sister and brother, ages 1 and 2. When I unpacked the black trash bag that the social worker left, the clothes were filthy and most were for older children. I called the Foster Closet and we were able to get pajamas, underwear, socks and two outfits for each of the kids that same night.
