While most first-time parents finalize the nursery and stock up on diapers in the final weeks leading up to the birth of their baby, Matt and Katy were separated by over 300 miles. Once their baby daughter was born and the couple was reunited, the new family was confronted with some serious health complications with their daughter. Matt and Katy remained bedside in the hospital–day and night–for five straight weeks.

The couple was in need of a real bed, good food, privacy, and some fun. Back to Us is honored to have had the opportunity to provide exactly those things.

Matt and Katy are a very genuine couple with a fantastic friendship, and they are already in route to be great parents. We wish them all joy and health for the whole family.

Kevin and Janell joined the Back to Us family from a nomination from Colorado’s Project 1.27. They are the parents of six biological children, and they have fostered fifteen kids in the last three years. Kevin and Janell are currently fostering two young boys, one of them a newborn, whom they hope to adopt into their family. These placements have been lengthy and draining, leaving the couple ready for a much-needed break.

Back to Us was pleased to provide a fun and luxurious weekend away for Kevin and Janell. When asked about the highlights of their weekend away, they laughed about this being the first time they could remember sharing a quiet dinner together at a restaurant. They also recalled how they felt overwhelmed with generosity which was a nice and welcome change from being overwhelmed with their life circumstances.

We are honored to have served such a wonderful couple and wish them all the best. Thank you to all of the donors and partners that helped make their weekend possible.
