Foster Care Support Foundation has grown in the last seven years to serve over 4,000 children and needs a permanent space in order to reach over 20,000 yearly. Funds are needed, in-kind donations to build on our newly purchased 3.3 acres of the field of dreams. We need flooring, lighting, building materials, roofing, builders and much much more to build our planned 25,000 sq ft needed facility. The new facility will house the free store for foster children to shop free of charge for the needed clothing, toys and safe infant equipment and also will serve as a place for foster parents continued education training to learn how to care for an abused and neglected child in their homes. Also in the plans is a computer education program to help the 14% graduation rate inf Georgia's foster care system. Won't you please help us build a building for our most at risk youth in foster care?
