We are so grateful to have had such an amazing Foster Hope Day on November 20!
Thanks to the incredible support of our donors, volunteers, and supporters, we exceeded our goal and raised $292,586!
Because of supporters like you, we’re one step closer to our promise to serve 100% of local children entering foster care by 2029. We will provide vital support services and intervention to even more kids and families who need us, including:
- Child-specific recruitment for kids seeking permanent family
- Specialized support for relative care providers
- Relevant, updated trainings for parents
- Birthday and holiday gifts
- …and much more!
This outpouring of support for our mission means so much to us. We are truly grateful.
But the good news doesn’t stop there. Yesterday, Emmy award-winning actor and St. Louis native Sterling K. Brown announced the launch of the Aralean Brown Older Youth Readiness Fund, named in honor of his mother. The fund will help youth impacted by foster care, ages 13-24, build strong, stable futures through support for education, skilled trade training, housing, and other essential needs.

We truly have the best donors in the world. Thank you for supporting our work on Foster Hope Day and throughout the year. As we always say—it’s all for the kids!
Thank you for being a vital part of our vision: For every child… A Place to Call Home.
