Often times children in Foster Care store their personal belongings in a trash bag. It is the goal of Bags of Hope to replace them with duffle bags.

Bags of Hope is our annual orphan care project where we provide Duffle bags to children in Foster Care, embroidered with their name and filled with age appropriate comfort items (i.e. Pillow Pets, journals, fleece blankets, etc...) Often times children in foster care store their personal belongings in a trash bag. It is the goal of Bags of Hope to replace these trash bags with Duffle bags. Last year we were able to give bags to just over 300 children in local Massachusetts & Rhode Island Foster Homes. This year we are hoping to bless 750 children from our community! Bags of Hope has partnered with local churches that have helped make this possible.

This year stretched us, surprised us, and surpassed what we thought was possible. Records were broken, doors were opened, and every step was covered by the faithfulness of God.
Grateful for every volunteer, donor, partner, and prayer that made this year one we’ll never forget. 💼 🤍
Here’s to trusting Him again and again because He calls us by name and always provides.

Every stitch tells a story of hope. Because of Sandy Lane Sports Shop and d2s Apparel, thousands of children have felt seen, valued, and remembered. Thank you for showing up year after year with excellence, generosity, and heart. We are endlessly grateful for the love you “sew” into every Bag of Hope. 🧵✨
