To Give to Our Local Foster Children
GIVE BACKPACKS AND SUITCASES TO OUR LOCAL FOSTER CHILDREN
The goal of our non profit organization is to give backpacks and suitcases to our local foster children so they don’t have to carry all of their belongings in trash bags.
We are also gathering goodies to give to them i.e. a blanket, stuffed animal, book, pajamas, notebook, pens, headphones, and notes of encouragement to help them have a little bit of comfort during their difficult time and tough transitions.
There are at least 400 children a year just in Wilson County, TN that are removed from their homes for various reasons i.e. neglect, abandonment, incarceration, inadequate housing, caretaker drug or alcohol use, sexual abuse, physical abuse, etc.
Anything we can do to show love and to give hope to these children will greatly help their mental health during these horrific circumstances.
There are Several Ways to Donate
We are looking for “new items with the tags still attached” or “like new-gently used” items that still look brand new.
1) You can shop for the items and drop the items off at our drop-off location
2) You can shop online at your favorite retailer and have the items shipped directly to me, i.e. Walmart.com, Target.com, Kmart.com, Amazon.com, etc.
3) You can give online and we will do the shopping for you
