A huge thank you to the Macoupin County Public Health Department for their donation of 323 items from their recent Foster Care Supply Drive in honor of Population Focus Day during National Health Centers Week. These generous contributions are now part of a mission to ensure no one faces this journey alone, bringing comfort, dignity, and hope to those who need it most. We couldn’t have said it better: Thanks to this incredible community… Thank you for showing up, giving generously, and strengthening the heart of this community.

Maurices (Litchfield, IL) recently donated their remaining Evsie clothes to the While We Wait foster closet. We are so grateful for this generous donation and such amazing community partners.

The BenGil Elementary Tigers collected baby item donations for the While We Wait foster closet during the week of February 10th-14th. The generous families of CUSD #7 collected: 15 packs of diapers, 16 packs of baby wipes, 5 bottles, 8 packages of socks, 13 bottles of bath wash, 5 bottles of baby lotion AND 67 pairs of pajamas.
Thank you BenGil Tigers!

Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and continue our mission of building a strong foster community.
