Meet Willow and Kade!

A Resilient Duo Ready for Roots – Willow and Kade are an incredible sibling pair with a deep bond and a shared hope: to find a family who sees them, supports them, and stays.

Willow is a bright and determined teenager who balances academics, athletics, relationships, and work with grace beyond her years. She’s a standout student and a track and field athlete who also holds a part-time job – evidence of her drive and maturity. Willow is thoughtful, focused, and deeply resilient. She longs for stability and a safe place to land – a home where she can trust the adults around her, express her feelings without fear, and be supported in reaching her goals. She dreams of being part of a family that respects her voice, encourages her independence, and makes her feel truly rooted.

Kade, her younger brother, is a creative, kind-hearted middle schooler who dreams of designing video games and creating his own content channel someday. He’s incredibly curious and imaginative; always thinking of new ideas, exploring how things work, and finding joy in both technology and the outdoors. He loves video games, riding four-wheelers and bikes, and collecting Pokémon cards. He’s hoping for a family to bond with by sharing interests, whether it’s playing games together, riding bikes, or just relaxing in each other’s company. Kade is also a sushi enthusiast and would love to one day have a dog and cat to love and care for.

Together, Willow and Kade are seeking a family that is kind, consistent, and encouraging, who will build trust at their pace and support their dreams. They’re looking for parents who lead with humor, patience, and heart, and who understand that healing comes through connection, consistency, and stability. This resilient duo has weathered a lot, but their hope for family remains strong. If you’re a family who believes in showing up, staying steady, and helping kids grow into who they’re meant to be – you may be the perfect match for Willow and Kade.
