Ways to help |
Foster Mentor
Becoming a foster mentor allows you to give back to the children in our community by being a positive role model and helping children who have been in abusive homes.

Clothing Distributer
This is what makes our success is the foster families that are in need of help, either once or ten times since they can come as many times as they need. Without them, the children would not have a place to stay in their time of need.

How you help |
We know life is busy for you, which is why we acknowledge how precious a gift it is. So when we say we appreciate your time as much as your donation, we mean it. |
About us |
Midland County Foster Closet helps to build a strong community by heightening the awareness of the epidemic of the insidious disease of addiction in our community and the fallout it causes for so many innocent children. We help to reduce unnecessary pressure a foster family may have while gathering items for the child’s immediate needs and help lower the financial strain a new placement can place on a foster family. |
