Back to school drive promo image
Back to School season is here! For foster children, the nerves of starting a new school year are about more than having a cool backpack. Many are going to a new school, in a new town, and living with a new family. Foster children deserve to walk through the hall on their first day feeling like themselves– not worried about anyone seeing them as “foster kids.” Join us to make sure that every child in foster care across our state has the things they need to feel like themselves and to make this school year the best one yet.
You can make a difference by making a donation, shopping from our wish list, volunteering, collecting gifts in your community, or even becoming a sponsor! Your support of the Back-to-School Program at The Foster Alliance is about more than just a backpack, it’s about ensuring that children on a foster care journey thrive. ALWAYS.

All donations are tax deductible. Only with your help can we look forward to ensuring that children in foster care will begin their next year with the tools they need to be successful.

Sometimes when your world has turned upside down, having things that make you feel special- like you again- makes all the difference.

Your donation to the Back-to-School Program at TFA isn’t just about pencils and pens; it’s about ensuring that children on a foster care journey thrive. ALWAYS.

There are so many ways to help: host a drive, donate a backpack, or even volunteer.

Donate

Your donation will help make the first day of school extra special for a child or teen in foster care.

Volunteer

Add your time and talent to our Back to School Drive by volunteering! Individual volunteers play a huge role in our day-to-day operations and are essential to our mission of bringing hope to children in foster care. Opportunities for individual volunteers include, but are not limited to: sorting incoming donations, assisting foster families at a mobile pop-up shop, packing backpacks, help thanking our donors, and helping out in our warehouse.
