Moving into your first place is exciting, but it can also be overwhelming, especially for teens leaving foster care. That’s why we’re so grateful to , , and for supporting our youth with apartment basics! Essentials like cookware, towels, bedding, and cleaning supplies help foster youth focus on independence, school, and their goals, instead of worrying about how to afford the basics. Thank you for helping them step into adulthood prepared and with a comfortable place to call home. 💙
