Part 3 of Tav’s Story: A Journey of Hope and Reconnection ❄
After years apart and countless prayers, Kim and Tav were finally reunited when Tav was 17, just as he was about to age out of foster care. Through persistence, love, and the support of programs like Family Finding, Kim was able to foster and ultimately adopt Tav at 18. A process nine years in the making ended with a new beginning: Tav finally had the family he always deserved.
At Via, we believe every person has unique strengths and potential. Just like Tav’s story shows the power of finding the right connection, our work focuses on partnering with individuals to discover their skills and create opportunities for meaningful employment.

"The moment I met Tav, he stole my heart. I had an immediate connection to that 9-year-old kid that I just could not explain. Tav was meant to be my kid." – Kim, Tav’s mom.

Kim first met Tav at age 9 as he transitioned to middle school, already carrying the weight of years in foster care, with no permanent family to call his own. Despite these and other challenges, Kim felt an unexplainable bond and began foster parent training, with the hope of adopting him. She gave Tav experiences every child deserves like meals, outings, and unconditional love.
“I felt parental love for Tav. I wanted him to be my son,” she recalls. When his foster family chose permanent guardianship, Tav stayed, understandably fearful of change. It was a heartbreaking moment for Kim, though her love never wavered. But this isn’t the end of Tav’s story—stay tuned for Part 3 next week.

Stories like Tav’s remind us why your support matters. Every child deserves safety, stability, and someone fighting for their future. Your gift helps us provide resources, mentoring, support, and hope for kids like Tav, and for families like Kim’s who open their hearts.

This season, you can make a difference. Give today and help write the next chapter in a child’s story: https://www.ViaNet.org/2025Gift
