Macomb Foster Closet We provide much-need clothing, toys, essential items, Christmas gifts, Easter baskets, and birthday presents free to children in foster care. Shipping an item?

Please only use the address found here: https://macombfostercloset.org/about-us Right now, children in our community are being removed from unsafe situations—abused, neglected, and abandoned—with nothing but the clothes on their backs. More than 10,000 children are currently in foster care in Michigan, and they’re entering the system scared, confused, and unprepared. Imagine arriving in a stranger’s home without pajamas, socks, a toothbrush, or even a single toy to hold onto. No child should have to start over without the basics. Yet this is the heartbreaking reality for so many. Macomb Foster Closet exists to change that—immediately. We provide urgently needed clothing, hygiene items, bedding, and comfort items to children entering foster care. Every donation—whether a gently used hoodie or a backpack full of essentials—helps restore dignity, warmth, and a sense of belonging in a moment of crisis. But we can’t do it without you. Your support helps us respond within hours when a child needs help. It shows them they are not alone. It tells them their community cares. Help us meet the need—today. Follow us on Facebook, make a donation, and visit www.macombfostercloset.org to learn how you can make a difference right now.

Today several board members from the Macomb Foster Closet spent the day volunteering with the amazing folks at the Downriver Foster Closet in Wyandotte at their big Halloween event 🎃 Over 300 people gathered for food, costumes, shopping, games, crafts, slime making, balloon animals, photo fun, bounce house, prizes, treats, pumpkins, and more 👻

We work hand in hand with nonprofit partners like the Downriver Foster Closet to care for all kids affected by foster care in Southeast Michigan. They volunteered at our Back To School Fest in August. We’ve been collaborating with them and sharing resources for many years now.

If you know of any downriver area churches, businesses, schools, or organizations looking for an excellent charity to support please refer them to the Downriver Foster Closet. They have recently launched their own forever home campaign to buy a building, and they certainly need more space to serve the volume of kids they do. They are all volunteers, like us, and do great work we can all be proud of 🧡 BE THE VILLAGE!

We delivered 3 beds, mattresses, sheet sets, and pillows to a home in Detroit to help a sibling set of two brothers and their sister who aged out of foster care.

Last night our building was filled with little ones picking out Halloween 🎃 costumes, trying them on, making new friends with other kids there, and running around pretending to be princesses and super heroes! Our volunteers were so excited to see these little angels, from different families, having so much fun together - just like all children should ❤️

On average, our volunteers do this for about 3-4 dozen youth every week all year round, not just at holidays or for special occasions, and for the full foster journey from birth to age 25….Helping Kids Begins Here at the Macomb Foster Closet!

Help make this possible by donating today at MacombFosterCloset.org.

We were busy yesterday with shoppers just like Trish & Thomas, pictured here, from Hazel Park. They unexpectedly were asked to take in a relative placement, making them one of our dedicated kinship foster families.

They not only picked out clothes, hygiene, blankets, food, and baby products, they also got a birthday party bag and presents to celebrate! Our volunteers do this every week all year round, not just at holidays or for special occasions, and for the full foster journey from birth to age 25….Helping Kids Begins Here at the Macomb Foster Closet 💙

We just received the largest donation from an individual in our history. An anonymous donor has generously invested $100,000 in the Macomb Foster Closet’s building and programs to provide children affected by foster care everything they need to thrive and feel cared for from birth until age 25 ❤️ Helping Kids Begins Here!

The donor indicated they had seen our work in action and believed in us to provide the most impactful direct services that these youth need. This amazing donation will fund the remainder of our critical interior facility renovations and provide for meeting the needs of emergency placements. Thank you for your truly transformational gift!
