Give the Gift of Education Readiness

We all know kids deserve a great education. Parents all over the nation are getting their school age kids ready. But who is helping children that live in foster care?   

Thanks to you, we are! You help us provide at risk children in foster care with personalized learning and tutoring support during a school season unlike anything we’ve ever experienced. Will you consider joining us in giving to support a vulnerable child’s education and care this fall?  

When you help support student readiness, alternative schedule and virtual learning become easier.   

Thank you for being the power behind this important work. You really make all the difference when you invest in a child’s education and future.

Now more than ever, kids at Thornwell need your help. Many hands make for light work and, together, we can make a difference for kids this Fall.  

Whether you’re a child advocate, volunteer, or church who wants to help, we have several options to help kids begin a new school year with a strong support system, education readiness, and remote learning assistance. You can help us to offer these children clothes, books, school supplies, and computers, too!
