Help Furnish 12 Family Homes for Siblings in Foster Care

Sadly, in the United States, data shows that 75% of siblings who enter foster care are separated from each other. No child should have to face such uncertainty. That is why Together California is committed to creating a supportive environment where each child feels secure and valued.

At Together California, A Village for Brothers and Sisters, we will ensure siblings can live together while in foster care. Our goal is to preserve and strengthen family bonds while providing children with the safety and stability they need to thrive.

Children in foster care deserve to live in a loving environment with the support and resources they need to thrive. We can make a difference.

That is why Together California is building 12 individual foster homes in Palmdale, California, to ensure siblings entering the foster care system can stay together, connected, and supported by an on-site community of care. Together California’s innovative model of care will have a full-time dedicated foster parent living in each home, whose only job is to offer compassion and love to every child. Our mission is to create a safe and nurturing environment. But we need your help.

Our goal is to raise $20,000 to furnish our first two homes with everything needed for a warm and welcoming environment. Your donation will go towards specific furniture and essential items, making each house a true home.

Background:

Why focus on Los Angeles County and Palmdale? Los Angeles County has the highest number of children in foster care in the country, and there is a strong commitment from local leaders to help improve the foster care system. With its energetic response, the City of Palmdale has enthusiastically supported this innovative foster care model, “Palmdale is leading the charge in reimagining foster care by keeping siblings together,” said City of Palmdale Mayor Richard J. Loa. “Together, we are transforming dreams into reality.”

Call to action:

As we create a safe place to keep brothers and sisters together, we need your help to fill the houses with warmth, comfort, and a true sense of home. Your donation will help furnish bedrooms where siblings can share bedtime stories, provide kitchen tables to eat together, and create cozy living spaces where they can be kids. Donate today and give them more than a space where they can grow, heal, and dream together. Give the children knowledge that they are not alone. Together, our care can make a difference because every child deserves a loving home filled with a sense of belonging. Give now and help change lives forever.
