Help Support Foster Families!!!
Tax deductible
Burnett County Foster Closet, Inc is a non-profit organization which collects new clothing for children of all ages taken into foster care.
When a child is placed into care they are given an outfit, sleepwear, diapers or underwear, formula, hygiene items, socks, a comfort blanket, a backpack or carry all and a variety of other items depending upon the age and need.
BCFC is an office space and storeroom where the items are collected, sorted and made available for the social workers to distribute. It also supports the foster families in the area.
The closet is run 100% by volunteers and donations. The rent for the location is not, however, donated. It costs $5700/year to rent the closet and storeroom. Insurance is approximately $500/year.
Although we have applied for grants, most stipulate that those funds be used for items for the kids and not for rent or operating expenses.
Our goal for this is Go Fund Me is $6500.
