    Description

    New Jersey Angels believes that not everyone is called to foster or adopt, but everyone can make a difference in a child's life, and one of the ways we hope to do that is through our Love Box program. The Love Box program provides fostering families (caregivers, children in foster care, and biological/adopted children) with community and holistic support. As a Love Box group, you will be matched with a local foster family based on location, compatibility, and scope of needs. When our families are matched with committed volunteers who show up monthly, parents feel supported and children gain a greater sense of normalcy, relational permanency, and self confidence.

    We have 1 family in Ringwood that is waiting to be matched with volunteers in our Love Box program!

    This loving family has two sets of twins-11-year-old girls and 8-year-old boys. With four kids, life is full, and mom could use extra support for the whole family. They’d love help from someone comfortable with four children-whether it’s spending time with the older twins or caring for the younger ones to give mom and dad a chance to focus on the older girls, who’ve been feeling a little left out. Weekend babysitting for date nights would also be greatly appreciated.

    The family is open to support from a volunteer or volunteer group and would warmly welcome practical or financial contributions to help meet their needs. They’d cherish someone kind, dependable, and ready to make a meaningful difference in their lives.

    Reach out today to make a difference in the lives of our foster care community.
