What does Foster Care feel like?
When you read these quotes from former foster youth about what foster care feels like, you can't help but be moved. These quotes reveal how deeply youth in care feel the loss of their dignity, loss of their voice, and loss of control of their environment.
While entering foster care will always be traumatic, Foster Care Closet works to lessen that trauma by restoring dignity to youth in care and offering them choices about the clothing and products they put on their body.
Youth get to shop for brand new clothes in many styles, sizes, and textures, and they walk out our door feeling more comfortable and confident as they face the challenges of life in care.
When you donate to Foster Care Closet, your dollar is multiplied almost threefold due to our wholesale purchasing process. Your donation could provide a complete seasonal wardrobe to youth in care free of charge and saves foster families around $350 (the cost to shop for the equivalent at a department store).
This holiday season will you donate to help us restore dignity to youth in care?
