Foster Love

Want to join us in making a difference? We are a church youth group located at Christian Faith Center Español in Nampa, Idaho and raising money to benefit Together We Rise. Any donation will help make an impact. As Christ followers, we are taught to be the light of the world and we not only want to preach that message, but we also want to put it into action. Our goal is to raise as much money as we can by October 15 in order to bless the founder and team at Together We Rise. We will be presenting the money to Together We Rise at our Youth and Young Adults Conference: LUZ 2021. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to us.

More information about Together We Rise: Together We Rise is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization comprised of motivated young adults and former foster youth. Our vision is to improve the lives of foster children in America, who often find themselves forgotten and neglected by the public. We collaborate with community partners to bring resources to foster youth and use service-learning activities to educate volunteers on issues surrounding the foster care system.

As many of you know, our lives were changed forever when we were introduced to Baby J in December of 2020. He is a foster child and we are on the (very long) path to adoption. This sweet boy has changed our lives and the process has opened our eyes to the heartbreaking truth of our very broken foster care system.

In honor of J's upcoming 2nd birthday, we have put together this fundraiser to help the organization Together We Rise. This amazing group provides so many services for foster care children including creating "Sweet Cases." When children enter foster care, they are typically given trash bags to move their belongings. The Sweet Cases made by Together We Rise are NEW duffel bags filled with a teddy bear, a blanket, toiletry items and more.

All of the money raised will be donated to Together We Rise in Baby J's honor. Our guy has been through so much in 23 months and thankfully, he had some wonderful foster families who made things easier and brought this force of nature into our lives. However, there are so many children who are not as lucky. Please consider a donation to this organization and help us celebrate Baby J's birthday by giving back!
