   Leaving a Legacy: Lori Fair, For The Good

   Kicking off Season 2, my guest Lori Fair joins me to share how she is building a legacy through her nonprofit, For The Good. Lori’s deep love for children and families impacted by the foster care system led her and her husband not only to their youngest son, but also ignited a calling to support the foster community in a more intentional way. Her journey took a powerful turn during an encounter with the birth mother of a young girl they were fostering. In that moment, Lori felt Jesus open her eyes to the reality that birth families often need support, education, and encouragement to become safe, stable, and loving parents. That revelation became the foundation of For The Good’s mission. You do not want to miss this beautiful story of love, faith, and obedience — and how Lori is helping change the face of foster care one family at a time.
