" We are a resource for EVERYONE in the foster care system. To include; kids, parents, aging out teens, biological parents who are set for reunification. Also for new families in the process of becoming licensed"
Lauren Sanders,
Director
Foster
Children
We support local kids in foster care with what they need to succeed. For emergency placements we have diapers, wipes, formula, baby food, blankets, and clothing. After a child is placed with foster parents or reunified, we continue to help meet their many needs.
Foster
Parents
We support the needs of both experienced and new foster parents. Providing resources to help with the many challenges a foster parent faces. Not only for the child’s emotional and physical needs. But also, medical, safety, transportation, court and school must be considered.
Bio-Family
Reunification
The best outcome for any foster child is to be reunited with their biological family. We celebrate when a family is reunified after birth parents learn good parenting skills. Overcoming the issues that resulted in their children entering foster care.
Foster Family Free Thrift Shop
Our Sharing Center relies on donations to provide FREE items to help those in the local Foster Care System. We provide foster children and families baby needs, children’s clothing, toys, furniture and more.
We appreciate donations of very gently used children’s clothing, toys, backpacks, books, baby needs, furniture and NEW shoes, underwear, toiletries and your financial donation. Another great way to donate items for the foster children is to visit our Foster Care Amazon shopping page where we make it easy for you to donate needed items.

Let The Numbers Speak
Accomplishments since beginning Volusia County foster services in 2021.
For foster parents and families, we help with gently used and inspected bedding for their foster children. Also, assisting with safe and reliable car seats, providing safety kits to help them babyproof/toddler proof their home. When a family is reunified, we offer welcome home care packages. After family reunification, we help the biological parents get new clothing, shoes, and bedding. Helping give their kids a fresh start.
It is our priority that all kids coming into a new foster home receive a care package. We provide Infants a security blanket, new pacifier, and a warm blanket. For toddlers, stuffed animals and a blanket. School aged kids recieve a stuffed animal, blanket, dental hygiene kit, hairbrush, and a journal to write in. Finally, for teens their needs are met on a case by case basis. It is our mission to assist everyone in our local foster community with fast and reliable services.
We are 1 Ohana and 1 Community. Let’s come together and change 1 Foster Journey at a time!
