Former foster child Desiree Combs, 6, center, dances the “Harlem Shake” with other foster children and supporters Thursday at the Clark County Amphitheater to close out National Foster Care Month. The event was sponsored by the Clark County Department of Family Services, the Clark County Commission and Project WE, a nonprofit that helps foster children transition to adulthood.

Project WE, the Clark County Commission and the Department of Family Services organized a “Harlem Shake” to help bring awareness to National Foster Care Month. Several thousand children are in the foster care program in Clark County and the organizations want the public to know about the multiple ways they can help aid these children. The event was one of the last awareness campaigns staged during this year’s National Foster Care Month in Las Vegas.
