For children in foster care, the holidays can be a very difficult time. Foster children often feel lonely and sad at a time when most kids are making their holiday wish lists or spending time with family. A contribution to ChildNet’s Tuesdays of Giving will help ensure that the children under our care have everything they need by alleviating some of the financial burdens of their caregivers.

A donation will provide much-needed enhanced services and support, as well as holiday gifts and COVID-19 relief efforts. Other areas include specialized medical care, tutoring and enrichment activities like arts and sports programs that build resilience and foster success.

ChildNet is currently serving over 3,300 foster youth and families throughout Broward and Palm Beach Counties. This fund will provide assistance to children and families involved in the foster care system.
