Foster Family Support

“Sponsor a child, and give your time. Kids without Christmas, is such a crime. When you see this miracle, your giving this year, You too will experience, a Christmas with cheer.”

Each year the foundation runs Save-A-Christmas Foster Kids — a direct, hands-on drive to support approximately 17 foster children across 2 homes that have no active foster parents during the holiday season. Volunteers and donors fund shopping trips, gift packages, and a real Christmas experience for kids who would otherwise go without.

It’s the foundation’s longest-running tradition: the first Save-A-Christmas ran in 1996 alongside Christian Family Care, and it’s happened every year since.
