Alternative Family Services hosts our annual Back to School Drive to support Foster Youth with virtual school needs through - Foster Learning. Help support a foster child's school supply needs as they transition to learning from home.

Story

Alternative Family Services supports hundreds of Foster Youth annually across Northern CA - Greater Sacramento and Greater Bay Areas. As an AFS Board Member, I'm doing my part to lend a hand to Foster Youth preparing for distance learning. 

Health equity is at the heart of our mission and we must ensure that all AFS Foster Youth are fully equipped with the tools and resources necessary for successful education from home. This support is critical for under-served students who often rely on public schools and teachers for supplies, meal assistance and enrichment programs. Support a foster child's distance learning needs by making a donation today.


Please help the children of Alternative Family Services start the school year off with success and stability by making a donation to the Foster Learning call to action. $50 will supply one Foster Youth with school supplies this fall for continuing education from home.

Support my team by making a donation today OR choose school supplies for Foster Youth through the Foster Kids Wish List/Amazon Smile - AFS

Thank you for supporting the underserved populations in our community!
