The Dixie Twin Drive-In at 6201 North Dixie Drive will be celebrating family-friendly fun Monday night as they host Agape’s ‘Kick Off to Summer Drive-In Movie Bash.’
Agape for Youth, Inc. is a Dayton-based organization that serves and supports families and youths through foster care, adoption, and reunification.
Agape is ‘urgently seeking’ families and individuals open to fostering children who are facing difficult circumstances, according to a news release.
“Becoming a foster parent is about far more than providing a bed—it’s about offering love, stability, and hope when it’s needed most," a spokesperson for Agape said.
The event is free to the public, but donations are encouraged.
