Each month, Foster Adopt Minnesota partners with local news and print media to feature a Minnesota child or sibling group in need of an adoptive family.  These partnerships are invaluable in helping to find homes for Minnesota children and raising awareness about the need for adoptive families in all Minnesota communities.  Below are our current newspapers partners and their most recent waiting child feature.

Star Tribune

Minnesota’s Star Tribune newspaper features Minnesota Waiting Kids (Minnesota children currently in foster care) in their Variety section monthly.

This Month's Star Tribune Featured Children

Anjelica, 16

Anjelica is bubbly, talkative, and affectionate. She excels in academics and enjoys cooking, planning meals, and spending time in the kitchen. Anjelica also enjoys arts and crafts, singing, dancing, playing outside, playing with slime, and playing soccer. Anjelica especially likes typical teenage activities such as going shopping, getting her nails done, wearing make-up, and hanging out with her friends.

Anjelica would do well with a family who has a good sense of humor and is willing to be silly with her.

Lawrence (Larry), 15

Lawrence (Larry) is a very insightful kid that is extremely likeable. His wittiness, sarcasm, and humor make him a lot of fun to be around. Some of Larry’s favorite things include Transformers, spicy buffalo wings, the Green Bay Packers, the show Friends, and cheesecake! Larry also enjoys being in the water and being around dogs.

If Larry could plan a day of fun, he would want to go to the movie theater. He says it is not about the movie. It is more of just the experience of going to the theater. He would order popcorn and Orange Fanta. If he could go to any concert, he would want to see Fetty Wap or Harry Styles. If he could only eat at one fast food restaurant for the rest of his life, he would pick Red Lobster. Larry would want to go to New York City to shop and visit all the touristy areas such as the Twin Towers memorial, the Statue of Liberty, and the Empire State Building. He also would want to check to see if they have any Friends memorabilia that he could purchase.

Larry will need to maintain contact with his siblings.
