We have had to cancel the meeting scheduled for tonight at the last minute! I will reschedule as soon as we know when. We are so sorry for any inconvenience.

Good morning, everyone! In addition to what Melinda, our wonderful president posted a little bit ago, I want to explain what we do. We not only keep the Rainbow and Raindrop Rooms stocked, but we also assist in helping families stay together. If that is not possible, we want to make sure the children facing the trauma of removal from their parents to other family or foster care have the things that they need both when they arrive at their (hopefully) temporary home and while they are there. Whether that be clothing, shoes, toiletries, or other necessary items, such as car seats, pack-and-plays, and even window unit air conditioners and small generators for those on support systems, we do our best to get those to them. We are also here to raise awareness of child abuse and neglect in our county. To do this, we do need more board members and volunteers, ready and willing to meet monthly and/or assist in a few events a year. If you are interested, please contact us and pass our message along to anyone you think may want to help!

We are just out here at the Yamboree Grounds trying to raise awareness for these babies in Foster Care. Come out and see me. We will be here all weekend! No donation to small all appreciated! If you don't know what we do we supply a new bag with all the basic care items a child coming into foster care may need. We also supply clothes for initial placement and now for school and spring summer. We are also now supplying gift cards for Birthdays for our kids in foster care starting Jan 1st. Thanks to our community and all those partners who have helped. We couldn't have done it without the ladies that care for the Clothes Closet @ 1st Methodist Church here in Gilmer. Also thanks to the ladies who supply the bags we recieve from the ladies at Caring Chain Project, (www.CaringChainProject.org )

The Rainbow Room of Upshur County is a non profit organization. It's a 24/7 resource center located in the CPS offices where caseworkers can come to gather essential items for children who are in crisis.

We are needing more individuals willing to volunteer their time in becoming members of our team. If you would like to help out in your community please reach out to us for more information.
