Holiday Heroes: FedEx delivers Christmas to adoptive families

FedEx made history this week delivering the coronavirus vaccine that went out to cities across America. We honor FedEx in FOX 11's Holiday Heroes series. Not for that massive undertaking, but for nearly a decade of bringing Christmas in a big way to our Wednesday's Child adoptive families.

FOX 11's Wednesday's Child history with the Dodgers

As we watch our hometown team in the World Series think about what the Dodgers mean to you. To me, it's gratitude for a franchise that has been so great to kids in Los Angeles County foster care. With our Wednesday's Child weekly story on FOX 11 News at 10 p.m., we spend a day on the field every season.

Wednesday's Child: Markus loves sports and is looking for a forever family

Born in 2003, Markus is a warm and engaging teen in foster care who holds a lot of passion for a variety of interests and enthusiastic about experiencing new things. In addition to his educational pursuits, he is athletic and loves sports. Markus had never been to Staples Center for an event, so NHL Hall of Famer and current President of the LA Kings Hockey Team, Luc Robitaille made Markus his personal guest at what would be one of the final games of the season.

Wednesday's Child: Sweet siblings Mario, Emiliano, and Ivan looking for a permanent loving family

Mario (2005, Center), Emiliano (2007, Right) and Ivan (2009, Left) are brothers who describe each other as their best friends. They’re always on the go, full of energy and spontaneity.  They love being in the outdoors. That’s not all there is to these boys – they have a knack for learning, especially on the tech side. We brought them to one of our favorite learning labs – Rolling Robots in Glendale, CA for a lesson in robotics.
