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. Here are different ways you can help:
. One-Time Donations: Make a single, impactful contribution to support our laptop program and provide foster children with the tools they need to thrive.
2. Monthly Giving: Join our Monthly Giving program and pledge a recurring donation to ensure a sustained impact on the lives of foster youth. Your consistent support will make a lasting difference.
3. Corporate Sponsorship: Partner with us through corporate sponsorship opportunities and demonstrate your commitment to corporate social responsibility. Together, we can create transformative opportunities for foster children.
4. Fundraising Campaigns: Organize a fundraising campaign on behalf of our laptop program and mobilize your network to raise funds for foster youth. Whether it's a virtual event, a charity run, or a social media campaign, your efforts will directly impact their lives.
5. Matching Gifts: Double the impact of your donation through your employer's matching gift program. Check if your company offers this benefit, as it can effectively double your contribution and support even more foster children.
Remember, every contribution, no matter the size, makes a meaningful difference in the lives of foster children. Choose the option that resonates with you and help us empower these deserving youth with the gift of technology.
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.

9/11/2023 Join Us for Foster Kids Charity Day of Service
Every year on September 11, our nation comes together to remember and pay tribute to the victims of the tragic terrorist attack that shook our country. In honor of this solemn day, former President Obama declared September 11 as a National Day of Service, emphasizing the importance of unity and giving back to the community.
At Foster Kids Charity, we are proud to participate in this meaningful day by organizing a Foster Kids Charity Day of Service. Our goal is to prepare 3,000 snack bags, symbolizing one bag for each victim of the September 11 attacks, which will be distributed to foster children as a part of our monthly food program.
We invite you to join us in this compassionate endeavor by contributing individually wrapped snacks for the snack bags. You can donate by shipping the items directly to us via Amazon or by assembling the bags on-site and bringing them to our designated location. Your support will ensure that each foster child receives a nutritious and comforting snack bag, providing a small moment of joy during their journey.
Here's how you can get involved:
1. Donate Individually Wrapped Snacks: Help us reach our goal of 3,000 snack bags by donating individually wrapped snacks. Items such as granola bars, fruit snacks, crackers, and trail mix are all excellent choices. Your contribution will make a tangible difference in the lives of foster children.
2. Ship to Us via Amazon: If you prefer the convenience of online shopping, you can support us by purchasing the snacks on Amazon and having them shipped directly to our organization.
3. Assemble Snack Bags On-Site: If you prefer a hands-on approach, we welcome volunteers to join us on the Foster Kids Charity Day of Service to assemble the snack bags or assemble them off site and bring to our office. Together, we'll create these thoughtful packages that will bring a smile to the faces of foster children.
By participating in our Foster Kids Charity Day of Service, you'll not only honor the memory of the victims of September 11 but also make a tangible impact on the lives of foster children. Your generosity and commitment to service will create a positive ripple effect in our community.
Join us as we come together on September 11 to show foster children that they are not alone and that their well-being matters. Together, we can prepare 3,000 snack bags filled with love, compassion, and hope.
To donate or volunteer, please visit our website or contact us directly. We sincerely appreciate your support in making this day of service a resounding success.
Thank you for your dedication to making a difference in the lives of foster children.
