Request Care Kits

By fosterhope  //  Request Kits  //  Comments Off

How do our Care Kits actually get to foster kids?  We partner with local foster agencies, who keep them on hand in their offices, so as kids enter or transition in foster care, Care Kits are always ready for them to receive!

Agencies:  Request Care Kits

CLICK HERE TO REQUEST REPLACEMENT OF DISTRIBUTED CARE KITS

Agencies:  Please note our new Care Kit request policy.

-          Care Kits can only be requested online.

-          A full set of kits will be only be given to an agency one time, each season.

-          After the initial full set, you just need to request replacement kits, as needed.  Be sure to request a new kit each time you give one out, so you can always have one of every size on hand.

-          In order to request a replacement kit, you must have basic information about who you handed the last kit out to.  This information is vital to ensure that Care Kits continue to be available.  Below is a link to a handy spreadsheet that you can print off and keep on a clip board near your Care Kit tubs so you can log the information each time you hand them out.

-          Replacement Care Kits can be picked up from our office on Wednesday’s between 10:00am and 3:00pm.  Our office address is 4029 Lapeer Road  Burton, MI 48509.

Care Kits

Many children come into foster care with nothing but the clothes on their back or a garbage bag of clothes that are too small, dirty or badly worn. In response, Foster Hope has developed Care Kits for children entering foster care.  Care Kits enable foster parents to spend the first few days focusing on helping their new children adjust, instead of running around to get necessary clothing and supplies.

If you are a foster parent in need of a Care Kit, please call (810) 936-5702 or e-mail: carekits@ifosterhope.com
