    Description

    Every child deserves to feel supported, valued, and connected to a caring community.

    New Jersey Angels is currently seeking volunteers in Oaklyn to support a local foster family through our Love Box® program.

    The Love Box program pairs a team of committed volunteers with a foster family to provide practical support, encouragement, and meaningful relationships. Volunteers help create a sense of community for children and caregivers who are navigating the foster care journey.

    As a Love Box volunteer, you may:

    • Deliver a monthly meal or care package
    • Spend time building relationships with children and caregivers
    • Celebrate birthdays and special milestones
    • Offer encouragement and support to foster parents
    • Help create a stronger network of care around the family

    Time Commitment: Approximately 2–4 hours per month

    Not everyone is called to foster or adopt, but everyone can make a difference in the life of a child.

    Right now, we have a family in Great Meadows waiting to be matched with caring volunteers. Your presence and consistency can make a lasting impact.

    Join us in ensuring that foster families feel supported, children feel valued, and no one walks this journey alone.
