“We offer foster families the same discounts as our staff. We have friends who foster, and we’ve seen the power of stability for kids in care.”
– Kevin Kerkhof, Hitherto Coffee
Foster Families: The Unseen First Responders
As a Foster Friendly business you will help foster families feel seen and valued, the same way we already do for other first-responders in our communities..
The discounts help with the cost of caring for additional children, and offers memorable experiences to kids in foster care they may not have access to otherwise.
When your business joins the Foster Friendly App you’re joining a movement that seeks to engage entire communities — businesses, faith communities, nonprofits and municipal leaders — to support kinship and foster families, and help attract new families until every child in foster care in your community belongs.
How Your Business Can Help Foster Families Thrive
Household Needs
Help families offset expenses with special offers or discounts on food or home supplies.
Family Dining
If you offer a family-friendly restaurant or take-out, BOGOs for kids’ meals or other savings help families on-the-go keep everyone happy, not hungry.
Recreation
Families who foster are intent on offering children experiences they might not otherwise have. Admitting kids in foster or kinship care for free is an easy way to help them create lifelong memories while having fun!
Celebrations
Some kids have never had a birthday party or other celebration to make them feel special. Discounts on a photography sitting, birthday cake, party venue or entertainment option can help families create those special moments.
Personal Care
Hair salons, nail salons and other personal care offers can help kids look and feel their best and/or offer a welcome indulgence for weary parents.
Home Services
Lawn care, landscaping, home cleaning and other household services can quickly fall by the wayside when juggling the demands of kids in need.
You tell me about your life and there’s probably a way what you’re doing can benefit America’s Kids Belong.
