“My foster mom makes me feel special.”

Children need to know that they are more than a case, a difficult circumstance, or another responsibility. They need adults who notice what makes them unique and communicate that they matter.

This child feels valued in her foster home. Your donation helps Agape support foster parents as they provide individualized care, attention, and encouragement.

Continued generosity helps more children experience what it means to be seen, celebrated, and treated as someone whose life has value.

When a child needs a foster home, there isn't time to start preparing one.

A six-year-old boy, Liam, faces another unfamiliar night because a foster family isn't ready to welcome him. That uncertainty is why Agape works to find and prepare families before the call comes.

This year-end, you can help get one more family ready to say yes.

Read Liam’s story and give today. Gifts made through the campaign are eligible for CHEF’s $1-for-every-$2 match through December 31.

A two-month-old baby boy needs the close, responsive care that every infant depends upon.

Welcoming a baby into your home can mean interrupted sleep, frequent appointments, bottles, diapers, and constant attention. It can also mean giving a vulnerable child the steady care his developing body and mind need.

Agape prepares and supports foster parents throughout the process. Families willing to care for infants are urgently needed. Consider whether fostering could become part of your family’s story.

A Taste of Italy: An Evening of Community, Compassion, and Hope

What a special evening!

On October 24, friends and supporters gathered for Agape Villages’ A Taste of Italy—an evening filled with wonderful food, heartfelt stories, generosity, and hope.

We were honored to hear from Congresswoman Dr. Aisha Wahab, who shared her personal journey through foster care, and Anjru De Leon, who spoke about his experience growing up in foster care with Agape Villages and how it inspired his commitment to helping young people find belonging and opportunity.

Janet Kleyn, President and CEO of Agape Villages, shared the impact of Agape’s work. Since 2025, 24 children have been safely reunited with their families, and 11 children have found loving forever homes. Those aren’t just numbers—they represent children finding stability, love, and a place to call home.

Randy Brown kept everyone smiling as our emcee, while the live and silent auctions brought out the incredible generosity of our guests. On The Vine Catering topped off the evening with a delicious Italian dinner.

To everyone who attended, sponsored, donated, volunteered, bid, or helped behind the scenes—thank you. Together, we made a difference for children and families. ❤️

A four-month-old boy has come into Agape’s care.

He is still learning the sounds, faces, and routines that tell him the world is safe. Consistent feeding, comforting, medical care, and attentive adults all matter during these early months.

Your donation helps Agape provide the support needed around him, not just during his arrival, but throughout the days and months that follow. Continued giving helps ensure children receive careful, responsive support during some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives.

“I like helping my foster mom cook.”

Preparing a meal together may seem like a small moment, but for a child it can create connection, teach new skills, and build a sense of belonging.

This child is not only receiving a meal. They are being invited into the routine of the home and given a meaningful part in it. Donors help Agape support foster families as they create these everyday opportunities for children to connect and participate.

Your generosity helps make room for the ordinary moments where trust and relationships grow.

An eleven-year-old boy has come into care.

Older children may understand more about what is happening, but that does not make the disruption easier. He needs adults who will respect his questions, notice what he is not saying, and remain steady when trust is still being built.

Fostering an older child is not about having every answer. It is about being willing to listen, learn, and remain present through complicated moments.

Agape needs foster parents prepared to make room for children who are old enough to remember, but still young enough to need dependable care.

“I wanted to stay in the same school. They helped make that happen.”

For a child experiencing major changes at home, staying at the same school can preserve teachers, friendships, routines, and a familiar community.

This child was heard, and people worked to protect something that mattered deeply to them. Your generosity helps Agape advocate for children’s individual needs and coordinate the support required around each family.

Donors help make it possible for children to hold onto meaningful parts of their lives while so much else is changing.

Agape’s work does not happen at only one stage of a child’s life.

It can mean helping a foster family prepare to welcome a child. It can mean a Master’s-level social worker providing consistent support in the home. It can mean enrichment that restores ordinary childhood experiences, or independent living skills that help a teen prepare for adulthood.

A Taste of Italy helps bring people behind all of that work into one room.
