Why Foster Children Need Your Help
Number of Children in Foster Care in Florida
15,441
Number of Children Entering Foster Care (monthly)
662
Number of Children Exiting Foster Care (monthly)

These numbers show that more children are entering foster care each month than exiting, leaving thousands in need of stability, support, and care.
Your help can truly make a difference—providing foster children and caregivers with the resources they need to create a brighter future.
Our Mission & Vision
Fostering Happy Childhoods
Every child deserves a childhood filled with love, stability, and hope. In Florida, 15,441 children were in foster care and still need support on their journey to healing.
At Friends of Foster Children, we are dedicated to enriching the lives of children in foster care, supporting caregivers, and working toward family reunification whenever possible.
When you support a foster child, you’re giving them the chance to heal, grow, and break the cycle of hardship. With love, mentorship, and stability, these children can thrive and build a brighter future.
Being There When It Matters Most: Jessica’s Journey as a Foster Parent

Becoming a foster parent is more than opening your home—it's opening your heart. For Jessica, that journey began five years ago. She didn’t know exactly what to expect, but she knew she wanted to be there for children who needed stability, safety, and love.
