Holiday Campaigns Support Foster Children Across Communities

Communities and nonprofits are organizing holiday efforts to support children in foster care. Sheboygan County officials say just under 50 holiday wish lists still need sponsors, while a South Carolina ministry is seeking donations to provide new shoes to all 3,500 children in the state’s foster-care system. In Sarasota, All Star Children’s Foundation is raising money for trauma-informed programs and supportive environments for foster children and families through its annual Twinkle Ball. In Chandler, an annual Thanksgiving dinner for foster children expects more than 430 attendees, with a Festival of Trees helping fund the gathering.
