The Foster Tree's Plan
HOW IT WORKS: Families put in a request for items that are critical during those first months of care, which include such items as car seats, strollers, beds/bedding, and highchairs. After families put in a request, they are provided care packages, which consist of a 7-day supply of age-appropriate clothing, new shoes, diapers/underpants, socks, hygiene items and a children’s bible. As you may know, most children only come with the clothes on their backs. On top of trying to meet the essential needs, foster parents have many appointments to make in the first 3 days of an emergency placement. This is where The Foster Tree can step in and help carry the load (“Bear one another’s burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ.” Galatians 6:2) by equipping families in the first moments of foster care placement.
"Caring for the orphans-Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world."
James 1:27
