Connect With A Wish is so thankful for a partnership between Ticket to Dream Foundation & Bombas that has provided us with new undergarments for our foster youth and young adults! Bombas just recently launched their underwear line and we are thrilled that we are able to provide these high quality, full coverage essentials in both men & women sizing ranging from XS-2XL to our population. The smaller sizes should fit tween/teens great! Thanks so much, TTD and Bombas. We appreciate the impact you're having on Hampton Roads foster care. .. #donation #partnership #communitysupport #localimpact
