FINANCIAL SUPPORT *

State funding for youth experiencing foster care is limited to basic needs, making it challenging for foster families to afford "extras" that can enrich a child's life like summer camp, organized sports, YMCA memberships, scouts, music lessons, school pictures, yearbooks and special needs like eye glasses. There are so many things that most children take for granted that are simply out of reach for those in foster care.

Your donation helps FFNC provide award for :

• Camp (award up to $300) - access to all kinds of camps.
• Arts Enrichment (award up to $150) - music lessons, band fees, art supplies, dance lessons, etc.
• Athletics (award up to $150) - YMCA memberships,sports equipment, team fees, team photos, and swimming lessons.
