Clothing for Kids in Foster Care in Oregon

Currently focused on serving Washington County

   

 


The Foster Closet is an all volunteer tax-exempt non-profit organization providing aid to the Foster Care Community by supplying clothing and other items free of charge to children in Foster Care.


We believe that children in foster care should live as normal a life as possible experiencing love, respect, and a kinder side of life while in their foster care home environment.


By providing these children with gently used or new and up-to-date clothing and supplies, we can help raise their self-esteem so they can feel good about themselves regardless of their living situation. 

 

 What We Do       

 

     

Foster Parents can be unprepared for a newly placed child in terms of having the right size or quantity of clothing and equipment required for a particular child.  Often children arrive in their new foster home with only the clothes on their back.   This frequently places a hardship on the Foster Family to provide for the immediate clothing needs of children.  


  This is where the Foster Closet can help


We deal directly with Foster Parents supplying them with clothing, shoes, new underwear and socks, baby gear, furniture, toys, car seats, etc. for the children in their care.   This enables the Foster Parent to provide for the most basic needs of the child quickly and helps ease the transition into their new foster home family.
