We Need Laptops!
Laptops needed
We need laptops! Since inception of our laptop program, back in 2020, our program served over 350 laptops for school age kids, teens and those who aged out of care. We receive requests from child advocate agencies, case workers, CPS and shelters, yearlong. Laptops help foster children with schoolwork, applying for jobs and applying to college. We created a fundraiser for our charity and hope to have your support. Here is the link to our fundraiser https://www.gofundme.com/f/wxua2c-laptops-for-foster-teens
Vision
The vision of Foster Kids Charity is to improve the well-being of children while they are in foster care and to educate volunteers about the foster care system. With increased well-being and awareness, we hope to achieve our goal of increasing the number of adoptions for foster children.
Mission
Foster Kids Charity strives to make sure that every child in the foster care system has their basic, personal needs met. This is accomplished by providing foster children in Texas with basic emergency items: food, clothes, hygienic products, school supplies and more.

Honoring the Victims of 9/11
The purpose of the September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance is to transform the anniversary of 9/11 from a day of tragedy into a day of doing well. Foster Kids Charity aims to honor the victims and those who rose in service by keeping alive the spirit of unity and service that arose in the immediate aftermath of the attacks. The attacks caused the deaths of 2,977 people and injured more than 6,000 others. Please support this event with your contribution today.

The September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance or 9/11 Day is a federally-recognized National Day of Service that happens in the United States on the anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. We want to honor the victims of this tragedy, and celebrate the hero's who had courage and in turn lost their lives.
