Her organization directly partners with the LA County Department of Children and Family Services to find ways to improve the lives of foster youth.

Guaty only had a month and a half to create the glam prom day. “Our prom glam day started with one of my hairdressers from one of the television sets,” Guaty explains. “She basically said ‘I'm going take care of the hair and makeup department.’ She hired people, professional hair and makeup people, so we had a whole room of 25 hair and makeup artists.” Grade point average didn’t matter in order to participate; many of the programs for foster children require a certain GPA.
It was Christmas time, and Guaty and her husband still wanted to provide assistance to foster children. They were connected to the Department of Children and Family Services in Los Angeles who informed them that there were still hundreds of tags on the Christmas Tree. In two weeks, through Guaty’s network, she was able to collect enough money to shop for 300 children. That experience ignited the vision for Foster A Dream.
