🩷Open Hours Impact 🩷

Yesterday during open hours, we had the privilege of serving 9 incredible kiddos through The Foster Closet at Innovation.

From clothing and shoes to everyday essentials, each item represents more than just a need being met—it represents a child being seen, supported, and cared for by their community.

Because of your donations, volunteer hours, and encouragement, foster families can focus a little less on finding necessities and a little more on helping children feel safe, loved, and at home.

Thank you for making moments like this possible. Every donation, every share, and every act of kindness helps us continue saying “yes” when foster,adoptive, and kinship families need support.

✨ DAY 7: IMPACT ✨

In the past month, our foster closet has helped serve 35 children in our community.

35!children who needed clothing, shoes, diapers, hygiene items, baby gear, or other essentials.

35 children whose caregivers said "yes" when they needed a safe place to land.

35 reminders of why this ministry matters.

Behind every number is a story. A foster family opening their home. A grandparent stepping up to care for their grandchildren. An adoptive family receiving support. A child navigating a difficult transition.

None of this happens without our incredible community of donors, volunteers, and supporters.

Thank you for helping us ensure that children entering care and the families caring for them know they are not alone. ❤️

Here's to reaching even more children and families in the months ahead.

💗 A Special Thank You to Primient! 💗

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to the employees at Primient for hosting a donation drive to support The Foster Closet!

Thanks to their generosity, foster families in our community will benefit from donations of gently used clothing, shoes, and other essential items. Every donation helps us ensure that children entering foster care have access to the things they need during times of transition.

We are incredibly grateful for community partners like Primient who choose to invest in local children and families. We look forward to continuing this partnership and making an even greater impact together!

Thank you, Primient employees, for helping us serve foster families with dignity, care, and support. 💕

🩷Volunteer Spotlight: Megan 🩷

This week, we'd like to recognize one of our amazing volunteers, Megan.

Recently, a local foster family received a placement call for a newborn coming straight from the hospital. As many foster parents know, these calls often come with little notice and a lot of unknowns. In just a matter of hours, families are preparing to welcome a child into their home and ensure they have everything that baby needs.

Thanks to Megan, this family was able to receive a newborn package filled with essentials to help them get started. From clothing and diapers to other newborn necessities, her willingness to serve helped ease the burden during a busy and emotional transition.

Volunteers like Megan are the heart of what we do. They help us respond quickly when families say "yes" to children in need, ensuring those families feel supported and those children are welcomed with care.

Thank you, Megan, for making a difference in the lives of children and families in our community. ❤️

Want to make an impact like Megan? We'd love to connect with you about volunteer opportunities, donation drives, and ways to support foster, kinship, and adoptive families in our area.
