HOLIDAY CLOSURES: December 17, 2023 - January 1, 2024
At Foster Love Project, we are dedicated to providing love in action to kids in foster care as well as support to the families who are providing care for them.
Serving children with dignity and LOVE
Foster Love Project began as a way to help provide dignity and care in the process for kids who experience foster care and to also provide support for kinship and foster families who are caring for the children making this transition. We work to encourage donations of new goods that will help kids who have to change their home with little to no warning, providing them with small comforts.
HOLIDAY CLOSURES
Please note these dates that Foster Love Project will be closed over the holidays for both shopping and donations.

During her experience as a foster parent, Kelly Hughes became passionate about providing kids with more dignity and care as they experience foster care, so Foster Love Project was created.

At Foster Love Project, we understand that children who have gone through the foster care or adoption process experience a level of trauma. To help foster/adoptive parents navigate this trauma and how it affects the way children experience the world, we have gathered resources to help you in this journey.
