Being in foster care is a confusing and difficult time for children and families. Moving frequently and not having a lot of resources other than those offered by the state, it’s easy to lose items or not have the nicest of things available. Our mission is to provide new or gently used clothing or items to children within the foster system or families that have taken foster children in. We strive to provide life skill workshops to help children within the system grow their knowledge as it’s a struggle being on your own without proper support. Everyone needs a village and a helping hand.

Our mission is to be a main resource that foster children and families can rely on for anything they may need. Please feel free to contact us at any time with suggestions on how we can better serve this population.
