'Instead of allowing our past to defeat us, we allow it to motivate kids all around the world.'
Davon and Tavon Woods of South Carolina are trekking 20 miles in every state to raise awareness for young people growing up in foster care. The duo have already crossed off more than 20 states and say they won't stop until their message reaches the entire country.
"We do it because growing up, we didn't know what love was. I never heard 'I love you.' Just so much hurt, so much anger," Davon told Robin Roberts on"Good Morning America.""So instead of allowing our past to defeat us, we allow it to motivate kids all around the world." "This last year I think we helped about seven to eight kids [who had aged out of the foster care system]. We gave them a place to stay when we didn't even have a place to stay. It's because we want these kids to know we love and care about them," Davon Woods said.
