Platt, Andrews Libraries Feature Local Foster Kids Needing Adoption

The Heart Gallery of Tampa Bay is currently on display for the month of October at twelve of the Hillsborough County Public Library Cooperative libraries. The exhibit features photos and videos of children and teens waiting for adoption in Hillsborough County. Information of how to become a forever family for foster children will also be available.

According to the Children’s Board, an average of 225 children and teens are awaiting adoption in Hillsborough County. The Heart Gallery exhibits are intended to raise awareness of our waiting foster children, engage the community in their welfare and secure permanent, loving adoptive families. 

The Heart Gallery exhibit is offered at the libraries in partnership with the Children's Board Heart Gallery of Tampa Bay.
