Everyone Can Do Something!

It takes just a minute to give a gift that will help a vulnerable child experience a safe and loving home

Foster the City is funded solely through financial partnerships with people like you.

Today, more children are entering into foster care because of abuse and neglect than there are homes that are ready to provide love and healing for them. Together, we can change that. Our vision is that one day we will see a waiting list of families rather than a waiting list of children in need of a home. Not only is this a great way to love our neighbor in need, but we believe that this is a powerful picture of the Gospel to a watching world. 

Your gift is a tax-deductible investment in the future of vulnerable children in your community.

Check and cash gifts can be made to “Foster the City” and mailed to 1172 Murphy Ave., Suite 232, San Jose, CA 95131.

We also accept other forms of financial gifts, such as stocks, crypto currency, and corporate matching. In addition, Foster the City can also be named as a beneficiary of legacy gifts, such as retirement plans, will, in memoriam gifts, family trust and estate, and qualified distribution through IRAs/donor-advisory funds.
