Welcome to Foster Care Support Foundation
where you really are making a difference!

We are a volunteer-driven organization that helps foster children in foster homes, serving between 3,600 and 4,000 foster children annually. Come help us help kids in crisis!!!

What would you do if a little four year old boy asked if you wanted to see his 45 marks on the left side of his legs and thighs, only to learn that they were cigarette lighter burn marks given to him by an out of control parent? In detail, this little boy told of the torture that he went through with his ordeal. Although unimaginable that any child would have to undergo such misery, his spunk and determination had not been silenced and he had hope that the world is not as uncaring and as cruel as his past experiences. You can help him too.

We are looking for sponsors for our operations and Capital Campaign. You can donate securely online by clicking here or click the Donate Online icon on the top left of this page.

We have moved!!! We have secured a lease purchase of 20,000 sq ft that is better suited and more cost effective than our original plans to build. With the economy downturn, prices have dropped on existing buildings and a space became available at half the cost of building. We have 1 year to raise one million dollars while a full half of our rent money goes towards the purchase price.
Thank you to all who make this possible for our invisible children. Through no fault of their own, they are thrust into abuse and neglect and a world of uncertainty. They deserve the same as ours to have clean and instyle well fitting clothing, education toys to help them catch up to others their age and safe infant equipment for their daily care. With your help, the children will not wait too long to be served while we set up the new center.
