Our mission

Fostering Hope is a volunteer-driven, donation-based, 501(c)(3) organization that serves the foster care community. Our mission is to serve youth experiencing foster care and those who open their hearts and homes to care for them by providing free, tangible resources to help them feel safe, valued, and supported.

We provide free resources to foster families, kinship care families, pre- and post-adoptive families, biological families on safety plans with their local child welfare office, and young adults who have recently aged out. 

Our vision

Our vision is to cultivate an engaged community where every child experiencing foster care is met with dignity, feels loved, and receives the care and support needed to navigate trauma and thrive.
