OUR STORY
We change the way hundreds of kids experience foster care across Erie & Niagara County. There are currently 1,200 children coming into the foster care system each year.
​
We collaborate with community partners, foster agencies and social workers to bring resources to foster youth. We are currently doing this across Erie & Niagara County through our Care Cases Initiative.
Our Initiative
When most children enter foster care they receive a trash bag for their personal items. We have replaced thousands of trash bags with new Care Cases for foster children in Western New York. We do this through community-wide fundraising and packing days.
​
Care Cases are personalized and all items are new.
