There are several different ways that individuals can get involved.
Serving as a volunteer is one way to help our organization in helping these children. Donating your time during an event or assisting our agency to collect needed items for children such as backpacks, school supplies, or Christmas donations is a second way to personally make a difference in the lives of our children in placement.
Another way to get involved is to make a financial contribution to our agency or collect gift cards on behalf of our youth which can be given out to them throughout the course of the year just as a way of showing that there are lots of people in society who truly care about the needs of foster youth.
Foster Parent Association Meeting are hosted on the last Wednesday of every month except for the months of October and December. Click the “learn more” button to find the next meeting date.
