🥫 LET'S FILL THE SHELVES! 🥫💙

We're kicking off our annual Food Drive to help stock the pantries of transition-age foster youth, resource families, and families working toward reunification!

Between now and November 16th, we're collecting nonperishable food items at our Community Resource Center, and we'd love your help!

💛 Want to make an even bigger impact? Rally your friends, neighbors, coworkers, or community group and host a food drive of your own!

Get creative and divide up the shopping list to help us provide a variety of nutritious foods:

🥣 Team 1: Cereals, granola bars & snacks

🥫 Team 2: Soups, canned tuna & canned goods

🥜 Team 3: Peanut butter, jelly & other pantry staples

🍝 Team 4: Pasta, rice & sauces

A little friendly competition can go a long way toward filling our shelves!

Every donation helps ease the burden of grocery expenses and ensures that the youth and families we serve have access to nourishing meals.

📍 Drop off donations at our Community Resource Center or shop our Amazon food wishlist at https://a.co/0iZ3J2s0

🕒 Donation Drop-Off Hours:
Monday & Wednesday–Friday: 9:30 AM–2 PM
Tuesday: 2–6 PM

📅 Now through November 16th

Together, we can turn a simple food drive into a meaningful show of community support. Let's fill those shelves! 💙

Meet Marcella, a Marin Eagle Scout, who selected Marin Foster Care as her beneficiary for her Eagle Scout Service Project. She organized and collected high quality items (an astonishing $27,000 worth of donations!) to create 53 transition care backpacks for kids 0-23 years old and 130 care kits for all ages.

Her goal was to create a bag filled with goods that are similar in quality to a foster youth's peers, in the hopes that one more hurdle will be eliminated as they transition to a new home. To help meet her goal, she had a fairy house building meetup where people donated towards her project, and they got to make fairy houses.

Amazing! We are so fortunate to receive these incredible gifts and know they will provide great comfort to our community's foster youth. Thank you, Marcella! 💛🥰
