Last December, students at Corner Canyon High School raised over $270,000 for Utah Foster Care, thanks in part to a generous matching gift from auto enthusiast and YouTuber Supercar Ron. The funds are already making a difference in the lives of foster families across the state. At the same time, raising the money held important lessons for the students.
Rob Gerlach explained that the nonprofit is constantly recruiting foster families and expanding its services. “Part of what they’ve added is post-placement counseling,” he said. “One of the hardest parts of fostering children is having them in your home, loving them like your own child and then they leave. But it’s also one of the rewards.”
