Dear Friends,
April is Child Abuse Prevention Month. It is a time to come together as a community to protect, uplift, and advocate for children who need us most.
Every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and loved. Yet, for many children in foster care, that sense of security has been disrupted. At Friends of Foster Children, we witness both the challenges these young people face and the incredible resilience they show every day. We also see the life-changing impact that compassionate, committed supporters like you make possible.
Prevention begins with awareness, but it doesn’t end there. It requires action to ensure families have access to resources, to strengthen support systems, and to step in early to create safe, nurturing environments for children. Through your generosity, we can provide essential services, advocate for children’s needs, and support caregivers who open their hearts and homes.
This month, we invite you to stand with us in a shared mission: to prevent abuse before it happens and to ensure every child has the opportunity to thrive. Whether it’s through continued giving, spreading awareness, or engaging with our programs, your involvement matters more than ever.
Together, we can build a future where every child grows up safe, valued, and full of hope.
With gratitude,
Jane Denny Richardson
Executive Director
Friends of Foster Children
