Your Complete Guide to Back-To-School
Your-Back-To School Guide
The Foster Alliance (TFA) is excited to continue to provide new backpacks with grade-appropriate school supplies to children in foster care entering preschool through high school. Additionally, foster families with children in foster care can select clothing for school. These essentials are made possible through #FosterAllies and their generous donations. Therefore, sizes and colors cannot be guaranteed, but we will do our best to accommodate you.
