A new dormitory will become home to boys from all over Texas who are in the state adoption or foster system. 

The Burke Center for Youth, located in Driftwood, has been raising money for the past three years to open Founders Hall for these kids. The nonprofit was able to raise $3.1 million to build the new dormitory where each boy gets his own bedroom. Burke Center for Youth’s goal is to make these boys feel like they have an actual home.
