Board of Directors
Lacy Basford
Director of Outreach and Co-Founder
Lacy is the biological, adoptive, and foster mama to five amazing kids. She married her high school love, rode away on a tractor, and landed with a barely used masters degree in Gainesville, Florida. They have been foster parents since 2014 and have welcomed over 20 children across their threshold. Her heart for the vulnerable is rooted in her own adoption as a child. When she’s not knee-deep in diapers, tweens, and child welfare, you can find her engaging audiences of all sizes on things that matter most in this world.

They are now parents to nine and have fostered over fifty since being licensed in 2012.
