Supporting Our Community

We Are Stronger Together!

What began with a focus on children in the foster care system, The Foster Friends Project expanded to pair every child in vulnerable and unstable life circumstances with a lovingly homemade, unique teddy bear of their very own– and delivered in a backpack that can help them transport what belongings they may have. Children in foster care, domestic violence shelters, affected by disasters, and caught in global conflict are just a few circumstances that we currently serve. They will be collecting stuffies! Here is a link to their pattern specs https://fosterfriendsproject.org/our-crochet-army-volunteer/ and more information can be found on their Facebook page.
