Share the Care

As you read this text, think of the foster children at colleges and universities who never receive a care package. Now is the time to SHARE THE CARE. Consider sending a care package to a local university or college to be shared with a foster student on campus or make a donation to ChildPromise and we will send a care package on your behalf.

Schools that have agreed to accept care packages directly are listed below.
