Our Local Partner: Friends of Foster Kids
Bringing holiday joy to children in foster care
Friends of Foster Kids (FoFK) is a Michigan-based nonprofit that makes sure children in foster care feel the joy of the holidays. Each year, they collect wishlists and deliver gifts wrapped with love. Since 2019, Bag of Joy has partnered with FoFK to help more kids experience the happiness of receiving a gift chosen just for them.
