Become a volunteer

Volunteers are an essential part of Fosterful’s success. They contribute thousands of service hours per year by providing quality childcare for children experiencing foster care - both in the home and in the child welfare office. They also serve as a resource for child welfare offices to call upon when needing extra help for community events such as School Supply and Coat Drives, Holiday Parties, Foster Parent Appreciation Events, and many more.

We hope that volunteers who get involved in foster care at an entry-level might eventually become full-fledged licensed foster homes. But we know that’s not for everyone.

That being said, If you have some availability during weekdays and you can commit to serving one hour per month on an on-call basis in the child welfare office, our Fosterful Companions program is your go-to!

If your availability extends beyond weekdays, you can commit to serving an average of 6 to 10 hours per month, and you’re interested in serving in the homes of one or two foster families on an ongoing basis, our Fosterful Sidekicks program might be a great fit for you!
