The New York Foundling
Back to School Supply Drive
Youth in foster care face significant challenges that reduce their academic opportunities and make it more challenging to achieve success. Insecure housing, switching schools, weak community supports, and compounding challenges widen the opportunity and achievement gaps for these young people, creating real differences in outcomes.
By donating school supplies, you can strengthen our community by helping kids have a fresh start this fall with the tools they need to succeed.
About The New York foundling
The New York Foundling is built on a 150-year-old promise to our neighbors, that all children, adults, and families can have the opportunity to reach their full potential. For all of us, unlocking our potential requires support along the way. The New York Foundling provides carefully designed programs, effective and interrelated services, and opportunities for our community members to create transformational change in their own lives. We believe every one of the 30,000 people we serve each year is capable of making the right choice for their future and that circumstance or zip code should not limit someone’s potential. Through our whole-life and whole-person approach:
We help children and families navigate through and beyond foster care;
We help families struggling with conflict and poverty to grow stronger;
We help people with developmental disabilities live their best lives;
We help to remove obstacles to wellbeing for people across our community through and our health and mental health services—core to building lifelong resilience.
