Sugar Plum 2024 is here!

 Santa's elves are hard at work hoping for another successful Sugar Plum year. 
You can visit our table at The Shops at Santa Anita starting on Nov 30th and ending on Dec 8th. 

If you want the convenience of shopping online, please find a TARGET link for a "wish list" of items for the support homes and children.

Each child will receive at least one of the gifts they request. It is heartwarming to see the generosity people have for children they have never met. This is truly the magic of Christmas!

  We are so appreciative and thankful for all the support.

ABOUT FOFC

Welcome to Friends of Foster Children (FOFC)! We have been serving foster children in the San Gabriel Valley since 1976. We are always looking for new members to join us and help make a foster child's life a little brighter.

FOFC is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) organization. We have no paid staff and no facility, so less than 6% of our annual budget is spent on operating costs. A total of 94% of every donated dollar is applied to the children's needs.

Various fundraisers and gift collections throughout the year are designed to help foster children in residential treatment centers in the San Gabriel Valley. We also assist newly emancipated foster teens as they learn to set up their own homes, continue their education, and begin their journey of being self-supporting.
