Let's raise money together on this global day of giving! Our year-end fundraising goal is to raise $18,000! Please help us get ever closer to that goal. Your dollars make an impact right here in our community- connecting youth and caregivers affected by foster care with essential, ongoing supplies and support.
Your donation supports the programs of OVC- keeping doors open, lights on, shelves stocked when donations are low, supporting staffing needs, and bringing in trainings for our families and community.
Imagine a teen coming to OVC with arms crossed, not speaking, not making eye contact, closed off...and leaving 40 minutes later with a smile, a bag of clothes, an art set, and a handful of books, saying, "I actually like it here!"
Imagine a grandma walking in to OVC overwhelmed, close to tears, and explaining she just found out about a grandson who is a newborn. She has been asked to care for him, but she has nothing for a baby anymore. She leaves an hour later with a car full of supplies, a hug for each of us, a grateful smile, a newfound hope while saying, "I'll be back new friends!"
We have the joy and opportunity to make these connections every week, and hundreds of time a month at the OVC Resource Center.
We can't do it alone. We don't do it alone. Your donations of great quality items, time and money keep our programs running.
Help us today through the end of the year with your donation of any amount! Together we can foster MORE connections, MORE hope, MORE support, and MORE choice and dignity among youth impacted by foster care and the caregivers who nurture them.
It takes a village!
