Help Make a Foster Care Placement

We’re excited to welcome and support a new foster family who has recently opened their home to two little ones: a 6-month-old infant and a 3-year-old toddler. As they begin this important journey, we’d love to help them get started with a few essentials to support their new placement.

Baby walker or bouncer – to help support the 6-month-old’s development and provide some comfort and stimulation.

Infant formula – the family is currently learning the specific needs and preferences of the baby, which can be a bit of a trial-and-error process in the early days. Because of this, Similac 360 Total Care is the suggested formula and/or a gift card to a local grocery store would also be incredibly helpful and appreciated.

This family is working with Foster Village Memphis, a nonprofit dedicated to equipping, connecting, and advocating for foster, adoptive, and kinship families and the children they care for. We provide critical support through tangible resources, holistic support, and community connections—bridging the gap between the needs of families and the wider community's willingness to help.

If you're able to help, your contribution would mean a great deal to this new foster family and the children they’re caring for. Thank you for supporting these first steps in creating a safe, loving home.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

On July 17th, the Department of Children's Services and various local community partners are hosting the 2025 high school graduation celebration for youth impacted by the foster care system in West Tennessee. For many of these students, graduation is not a guaranteed milestone—yet this year, we are proud to celebrate approximately 50 graduates who have overcome significant challenges to walk the stage and receive their diplomas. This event is more than a ceremony—it’s a moment of recognition, encouragement, and hope. To help make this day even more special, we are seeking door prizes to gift to these incredible young people. These prizes will serve as tokens of support and inspiration as they take their next steps into adulthood, whether that be college, vocational training, the workforce, or other life paths.
