Backpack & School Supplies Drive June 30 – August 4, 2025

 

Benefiting foster and abused children served by the Dallas Permanency Court

In the summer of 2015, Foster Kids Charity launched our annual mission to ensure that every foster child we serve starts the school year with the supplies they need to succeed. These children—many of whom have faced abuse, neglect, or unstable living situations—deserve the same opportunities and confidence as their peers.


Each year, we partner with the Dallas Permanency Court and local community members to distribute backpacks filled with school supplies to youth in foster care throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area.


Together, we can make sure no child is left behind.


Sponsor a Backpack – Just $25


Your donation of $25 provides:


  • A new backpack
     
  • A full set of grade-appropriate school supplies
     
  • Support for a child in foster care ages 5–18


 

Donate online to sponsor one or more backpacks or host a supply drive at your business, school, or faith organization

September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance

 

Join us on Thursday, September 11, 2025, as Foster Kids Charity honors the lives and service of those we lost on September 11, 2001. Together, we’ll commemorate this day of reflection and service by assembling 2,977 food bags and kits—one for each victim of that tragic day.


Why We Serve


September 11th is not only Patriot Day but also a National Day of Service and Remembrance. It’s a day when Americans of all ages and backgrounds come together to turn a day of tragedy into one of hope, unity and service to our communities.


By preparing food bags for teens in need, we honor the legacy of those who were lost and embrace the spirit of service that defines this day.


How You Can Help

  • Raisins
  • Small bottles of water or juice boxes


Ship items to our office or assemble off site with your group and deliver by September 11, 2025.



Together, we can transform this day into one of service, remembrance, and hope. Your participation ensures that the lives we honor will continue to inspire acts of kindness and unity in our community.

Christmas in July!

Help Us Make the Holidays Magical for Foster Children!

 

While most people are enjoying summer, at Foster Kids Charity, we’re already planning for Christmas—because making the holidays special for hundreds of foster children takes time, love, and community support.


Each year, we serve foster youth across Dallas-Fort Worth—children who have experienced abuse, neglect, and instability. Many will spend the holidays away from their families, and for some, it may be their first Christmas in care.


That’s why we start early, and we’re asking you to help us make this year unforgettable.


What's Coming Christmas 2025?

🧸 Host a Toy or Gift Card Drive

Set up a collection at your workplace, school, church, or business to gather toys or gift cards for our youth.
