About The Essentials Project

Every year, thousands of children enter foster care without the essential items they need. They leave their homes with nothing but the clothes on their backs.

That's why Foster + Heart has launched The Essentials Project. Our goal is to provide every child who enters foster care with a bag of essential items that can make all the difference during this uncertain time.


With your help, we can collect items like clothes, pajamas, toiletries, undergarments, and other necessities to create a sense of comfort and security.


We invite you to be a part of this important initiative by donating items, contributing funds, or spreading the word. 


Together, we can make a difference in the lives of children in foster care.
