AVIANNA and ARIANNA
Ages: Avianna, 11 and Arianna, 10
These two lovely ladies are Avianna and Arianna. Like many of the kids on the Heart Gallery, they have experienced a great deal of chaos and instability in their young lives. They’ve moved around so much, every few months or so, they start expecting to have to change homes again. Think about that for a second. Most of us wake up every day worrying about things that feel awfully important to us at the time, but Avianna and Arianna wake up wondering where they’re going to live tomorrow. Folks, we can do better by these kids! They just want to be home where they’re loved and wanted. Older sister Avianna is calm and sweet, but it takes her a little while to open up to new people. She loves soccer and really enjoys cooking with her foster parents. Arianna is a dancing queen and loves gymnastics, but she can get upset a little too quickly sometimes. We asked the girls what kind of home they wanted to live in, and they said they’d prefer an African American family where they’d be the only kids in the home. No matter what, Avianna and Arianna will need a home filled with love, patience, and consistency where they can get a lot of attention and support. Somewhere out there is a family for these two sisters. If that’s you, let us know!
In partnership with Project Zero and the Arkansas Heart Gallery, each month Do South® will feature a waiting child, or sibling group, in foster care in Arkansas. To inquire about these incredible children, please visit theprojectzero.org.
