Did you know that on any given day, there are nearly 428,000 children in foster care in the United States?

As you would suspect these children have a story and a past, but were you aware that most of these children enter into foster care with only the clothing on their back? That leaves these children in an unfamiliar place surrounded by unfamiliar faces. Left having to ask these strangers for a tooth-brush, shampoo and clean clothes. We at Kindred Heart Families are changing that uncomfortable situation with your help.  We want no child to enter foster care empty-handed.

Kindred Heart Families, Inc is a tax-exempt 501(c)3
