Fostering Hope Louisiana is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization founded by Leslie Lacy to address the orthodontic and mental health needs of children in foster care. As an attorney and advocate, Leslie witnessed firsthand the economic realities faced by devoted foster parents who prioritized the physiological needs of children in their care over items like a $6,000 set of braces. Children who were less likely to form friendships and who faced limited professional prospects because they were afraid to smile. Fostering Hope Louisiana partners with orthodontists who offer discounted services for medically necessary dental work, combined with the generosity of donors like you, to give these children a reason to smile.
