Supporting Care Bags for Children Entering Foster Care

Foster House Project is working toward a transition home for children entering foster care in Madison County. While that work continues, we are also supporting the Madison County Foster & Adoptive Parent Association’s care-bag effort.

When children enter foster care, they may arrive with only the clothes they are wearing or a small bag of belongings. A care bag can provide practical comfort while a foster or kinship placement is arranged.

MCFAPA has led this work for years. The bags include new clothing, hygiene items, and other age-appropriate essentials. FHP helps bring in supplies so those items are available when they are needed.

You can help by choosing items from our Amazon registry or by giving to the Foster Care Essentials Drive. Gifts to the drive purchase items for care bags.

This partnership gives our community a practical way to support children during a difficult transition. Read more about our current work.
