Foster Care Support Foundation
The Foster Care Support Foundation is a nonprofit, volunteer-driven organization that gives free clothes, toys, and safe infant-care equipment to some of Georgia's 10,000 foster children. As the only statewide foster care support organization, they strive to implement a community-based resource and education program that will decrease abuse and neglect in foster care and the need for institutionalization.
