Welcome to the Home for the Holidays Campaign!
As the holiday season approaches and our thoughts turn to celebrations with loved ones, Foster Forward asks for your help to create memorable holidays for the youth in state foster care.
For more than 27 years, each teen and youth in Rhode Island state care has received a gift during the holiday season thanks to the generosity of people like you! Gifts for children ages birth through twelve are generously donated by Hasbro, Inc. Monetary donations will be used to purchase gift cards for teens, so they can truly get the items they need. And, the pajamas we collect are for all ages!
To ensure every teen has a happy holiday this year, we ask you to consider helping us in on of the following ways:
-
GIVE
Make a financial donation to Foster Forward by writing a check made payable to Foster Forward and send to the Holiday Gifts for Teens Campaign, 55 South Brow Street, East Providence, RI 02914, or click the “donate” button below.
-
"ADOPT"
This season you can “adopt” one or more adolescents living in a group home and fulfill their wish lists. You will be matched with a group home that will provide their ages, interests, and wish lists. Contact Kate Bronner at (401) 438-3900, ext. 108 or kate.bronner@fosterforward.net
