Volunteer to support a Foster Care Family in Cherokee County

Atlanta Angels knows that not everyone is called to foster or adopt, but everyone can make a difference in the life of a child. There are several ways you can make a difference. We have the Love Box program, where we match a foster family with a volunteer in their community who is committed to building a relationship and showing consistently. 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.

This program requires a one-year commitment, with meetings at least once a month with your family.

We are currently seeking a volunteer(s) to be matched to a family on our waitlist in Cherokee County. This family is a caring single foster parent originally from Russia who has been fostering since 2018. She enjoys taking the kids to parks, lakes, and pools, and values creating fun and meaningful experiences for them. She’s currently caring for an 11-year-old boy who loves cooking, water parks, and trying new foods, and a 13-year-old who is still adjusting after leaving residential care. The family would benefit from a supportive volunteer who can help with outings, building connections, and offering light assistance like grocery or clothing support.
