You Can Be Part Of Creating Belonging For Kids In Foster Care


There is a critical shortage of foster homes. Learn about what’s required and sign up for our summer webinar series to hear from parents and former foster youth.

We have the privilege to film and help raise awareness for kids in foster care seeking adoptive homes. Visit our I Belong Project gallery to meet waiting kids, and learn about foster-adopt.

Join us as Wichita elected, business and faith leaders link arms to create a welcoming and supportive community around our city’s foster families.

Every child deserves a future filled with hope, love, and the joy of belonging. Your financial support makes a lasting impact.

Meet the Kids

Nearly one-quarter of kids in foster care can not be reunified with their families and are eligible for adoption.
Our I Belong Project is a video storytelling initiative that gives kids a face and a voice to help connect them with adoptive families.
Whether you are beginning your journey to foster, a seasoned foster parent considering adoption or someone with a heart for vulnerable kids, come and meet some of the amazing kids in foster care right here in our community.
