There are approximately 14,000 children in the Florida foster care system on any given day. They can remain in foster care for anywhere from a week to a year or more. The need for parents to take care of these children is dire. Join Our Kids and Latina Mom Bloggers on Thursday, September 18 from 8 pm to 9 pm EST for #HeroesForOurKids Twitter Chat. Participating tweeters will enter to win prizes from local Miami-area sponsors. But the best part is that each participant is playing on behalf of a foster family. If you win, you not only win a prize for yourself, but you also win a prize package for a foster family. Just by joining in, you become a hero too.
