Welcome to the latest episode of our podcast, where we feature inspiring stories and conversations with people who are making a positive impact on the world. Today, we are honored to have Rob Sheer, the founder of global nonprofit Comfort Cases, join us.
Comfort Cases is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing comfort and support to children in foster care. Through their programs and initiatives, they aim to ensure that no child has to endure the upheaval of moving from home to home with nothing but a trash bag to hold their belongings. Rob Sheer, a former foster child himself, founded Comfort Cases with the goal of improving the foster care experience for children everywhere.
In this episode, we'll hear Rob's personal story and the inspiration behind the creation of Comfort Cases. We'll also learn about the impact Comfort Cases has had on children and families around the world and what they have in store for the future as we introduce our new amazing segment with our friends at Comfort Cases!
