SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITES
We currently use sponsor groups who help us with providing specific needs for
Christmas, Easter, Halloween, summer, special events, etc. This requires​
a group with an assigned leader to help us make sure each child's need or wish is sponsored by an individual within that group through an online sign up program. We are very blessed to have our current sponsors in place for the upcoming holidays, but welcome anyone who is interested to contact our volunteer coordinator to inquire.

Duffel Bags
We are always in needs of DUFFEL BAGS for our children. These are mainly used when a child leaves our care. We will not send a child home with their belongings in a plastic trash bag and need your help in doing so. We prefer new duffel bags that are easy to store and used as needed. (please no used luggage) The Amazon Wish List has a few inexpensive options.
