Welcome to the Holiday Gifts Campaign!
As the holiday season approaches and our thoughts turn to celebrations with loved ones, Foster Forward asks for your help to create memorable holidays for the youth in state foster care.

For more than 28 years, each teen and youth in Rhode Island state care has received a gift during the holiday season thanks to the generosity of people like you! Gifts for children ages birth through twelve are generously donated by Hasbro, Inc. Monetary donations will be used to purchase gift cards for teens and young adults, so they can truly get the items they need. And, the pajamas we collect are for all ages!

To ensure every child, teen, and young adult has a happy holiday this year, we ask you to consider helping us in one of the following ways:

GIVE

Make a financial donation to Foster Forward by writing a check made payable to Foster Forward and sending it to the Holiday Gifts Campaign,

SEND A GIFT

Looking for a simple way to spread holiday cheer? Browse our Amazon Wishlist to purchase gifts directly for the youth we serve—no need to drop anything off! Your chosen items will be shipped straight to us, making it easy to give a meaningful gift without the extra time or travel. Every gift, big or small, helps brighten the season for a young person in foster care.
