How we help

Closing the gap.

Other help covers a lot, but not everything. What's left is the gap between what someone has and what they need. Closing that gap, here, for people nearby, is what we set out to do.

  • Hygiene kits

    Full-size soap, shampoo, toothpaste, and other basics, assembled into kits for young adults aging out of foster care, schools, and families across the area.

  • Beds for youth aging out

    When young adults age out of foster care — into what the system calls Independent Living — they often start out with almost nothing. We help provide a bed, a first step toward a place of their own.

  • School supplies

    New underwear, socks, backpacks, and other basics that state-provided school supplies don't stretch to, chosen with schools that see the need firsthand.

  • Holiday gift bags

    Gift bags for young adults aging out of foster care, so the season includes them too.

All of this runs on local gifts. Help us make a difference.
