    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 Teaneck that is waiting to be matched with volunteers in our Love Box program!

    This is a wonderful family of 7! With one biological child, two adopted children, and one child in care, their home is always buzzing with activity. Their little ones, ranging from ages 2 to 12, keep them on their toes! The caregivers would truly appreciate a helping hand now and then, as well as thoughtful monthly support through meals and care packages to make their days a little easier.

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