Fostering Homeless Infants and Children
Foster mothers take homeless infants and children into their homes. Members of the Madison advisory board of the Children's Service Society, a Red Feather agency, drive the foster mothers and their babies to a clinic for medical checkups one morning each month. Pictured in the waiting room of Dr. Alex Iams are Edith Anderson, a foster mother, and Children Society board members Mrs. Adolph Soucek, Mrs. Edward Felber and Dorothy Sinykin and Bertha Ebert, a foster mother. Playing in the center of the room is David Haugen who is accompanied his mother Mrs. Kenneth Haugen (of McFarland) to the clinic with the foster baby who is temporarily sharing the Haugen home. A bird mobile is hanging from the ceiling light. |
