Welcome Packs/Item Requests

We understand that placement can happen overnight and families often don’t have time to plan for a child’s arrival in their home. We’re here to help. The goal of our Welcome Packs is to provide essential items for the first week or so while the caregiver can focus on connecting and establishing a new routine. It is important to us that we offer families a positive shopping experience or a quick delivery of needed items. Our resource centers are well stocked and well organized with plenty of opportunities for children to play while shopping.

For kinship caregivers, our Care Packs are meant to give you a boost in your caregiving journey. We know it's not easy and you may not have been equipped to care for additional children in your home. Let us ease the burden by providing clothing, hygiene, school-related, and comfort items. 

For reunifying biological parents, we are overjoyed to celebrate the hard work you accomplished to bring your children home. We want to help equip you with a Welcome {Home} Pack filled with needed items for the kids and some housekeeping essentials to get your home stocked and prepped for their return!

*Foster Village makes no claims, representations, or warranties (whether expressed or implied) as to the safety, reliability, durability, and performance of any of the items provided. Foster Village cannot accept liability whatsoever for the safety and reliability of the items we distribute.

Fill out the general request form to let us know what you need!
