Friends of Foster Kids (FoFK) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Macomb County, Michigan. Their mission is to make sure kids in foster care feel the joy of the holidays. Every year, they collect and deliver gifts to hundreds of local children so each one feels remembered, cared for, and celebrated.

When you click Adopt a Wishlist, you’ll see wishlists from kids supported by Friends of Foster Kids (FoFK).

Every item you buy is shipped directly to FoFK, where volunteers pack the presents into Bags of Joy and deliver them to the kids just in time for the holidays.
Yes — each wishlist includes the specific items a child has asked for. To make sure every child’s holiday wish is fully completed, we ask that the entire wishlist be purchased. That way, every gift on their list can be wrapped, packed, and delivered to them this holiday season.
Each wishlist is created and verified by Friends of Foster Kids (FoFK) and includes a special code that links it directly to the child it’s meant for. Every item purchased through Amazon is shipped straight to FoFK’s office, where volunteers match each gift to the child’s wishlist, wrap them up, and deliver them during the holidays. You can trust your donation goes exactly where it’s meant to — bringing joy to a child who’s been waiting for it.
