The Heart of Foster Care is currently taking donations of new items for our “Bags of Hope” Project. Bags of Hope are duffel bags or backpacks filled with a blanket, stuffed animal, toothpaste, toothbrush, and other personal items. When a child enters foster care for the first time, they may come into a home with nothing but the clothes on their back. These Bags of Hope give them a sense of comfort and help ease the transition into their foster home with a little something to call their own.
If you have any questions or are interested in donating, please email Michele at michele.hofc@gmail.com
Some of the items we are taking at this time are:
- Duffel bags or backpacks
- Blankets (baby up to teen)
- Stuffed toys
- Crayons
- Coloring books
- Baby rattles
- Small packs of diapers
- Toothbrushes
- Toothpaste
- Deodorant
- Shampoo
- Lotion
- Soap
- Body Wash
- Cash donations (we are not a nonprofit, however, so no tax receipt can be given)
Thank you for your interest in giving. We appreciate your support!
