It is the goal of the Heart Gallery, not only to find permanent, loving homes for children in foster care, but to improve their quality of life and offer them many of the opportunities that non-fostered youth enjoy. By combining the efforts of public, business and the private sector, we are able to raise awareness and establish programs in an effort to provide for the many un-met needs of foster children.
With your financial support, we can make a difference in the lives of these special children. By providing them with the tools to raise their self-esteem and provide for specific needs, you are helping them establish a more stable foundation and realize they are a vital and valuable part of society. There are many ways to help!
$25 Bridge Builders - Your donation will be used to connect basic needs of a foster child or teen with the resources needed to provide them; includes items such as clothes, toiletries, accessories, movie tickets, restaurant gift cards, bus tickets, hair cuts, tickets to bowling, lazar tag, skate parks, etc.
$50 Dream Weavers - Some children in foster care never get to explore their talents though music, ballet, or art, thus missing out on positive, creative outlets which can build self-esteem. By granting a wish in this category you are offering a child the chance to make their special gifts shine; includes items such as music lessons, art, photography, sports, dance, summer camp, school field trips, specialized tutors, theater, etc.
$100 Magic Makers - High school can be a challenging time for many young people, but for teens in foster care, the experience can be alienating and defeating. Foster teens tend to move often preventing them the opportunity to connect and establish relationships. As a Magic Maker, you can help meet the economic and emotional needs during this time; includes items such as graduation gown, senior ring, computer equipment; cell phone; cosmetic dental care, formal wear for proms and school dances, make-over, glasses/contacts, etc
Other - Your donation in any amount will make a difference in the life of a foster child
100% of your tax-deductable donation will be utilized to the greatest benefit for children served by the Heart Gallery.
