WDBR is showcasing a great Springfield organization every month with Radio Shares the Love.

So many amazing charitable groups and organizations in Springfield do so much good for the community that deserves recognition.

Radio Shares the Love.  The love this month is for The James Project.  The James Project Bridge Family Program exists to fill the need of existing foster families needing short term (respite) care for their foster children.  Families in this program need not be licensed or even be a foster parent. The James Project believes they can best help foster parents and the children they serve through the provision of homes with 4-5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. This enables parents to house a large family of foster children.  For more information, visit thejamesproject127.com
