HAMILTON COUNTY, Ohio — This holiday season you might be rushing around, shopping for gifts at the mall. And while you’re shopping for your kids, you may stumble across some other kids who need your help.

Hamilton County Job & Family Services has about 400 kids up for adoption. Six of those children are featured on a new, massive display inside the Kenwood Towne Center.

The display stretches across an empty storefront across from Pottery Barn.

Kenwood Towne Center donated the space to the organization to raise awareness for the great need for foster parents and adoptive homes.

Some kids wait for their forever families for years. Many age out of the system before they ever find a home.
