Our mission is to restore hope and encourage children in foster care, who we call Dreamers, to dream again. We are committed to raising awareness about life after foster care, while providing resources, tools and everyday essentials as they age out of the Tampa Foster Care system and enter into a new phase of adulthood.
Our Mission
How You Can Help Make an Impact
Make an Impact TODAY!
More that 23,000 kids age out of U.S. Foster Care each year. Without that support that comes from an adoptive family or permanency connection, these kids face instant homelessness and are given trash bags to put their most precious possessions in. Every donation towards our Packing with Purpose Donation drive will make sure these teens are not forced to carry their personal items in a trash bag. No Trash Bags here!
How can you make an impact? Read more here on how you can donate a new suitcase, essentials to go inside or a monetary donation.
Our 1st Packing with Purpose Suitcase Donation Drive
When we initially started the Packing w/ Purpose Suitcase Donation Drive, it was only supposed to be once a year. However, the community outpour and the need for suitcases after our campaign ended, were both so great. We quickly realized we were making a huge impact on lives and that children age out of foster care daily, not just at Christmas. We changed our plans and started collecting and giving out suitcases filled with everyday essentials year round. Check out the video of our first Packing w/ Purpose and see how we exceeded our goal for teens aging out of the foster care system here in Tampa and other parts of Florida.
