Connect with a Foster Family - Become a Love Box Leader!

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 amazing family of two in Lakewood that is waiting to be matched with volunteers in our Love Box program! This professional, single mom took in her daughter several months ago AND this is her very first time being a mom! Although her 7-year-old daughter has many challenges, this first-time mom fell in love at their first meeting! Her little one is nonverbal autistic and communicates through basic sign and using her iPad. Mom would love a volunteer who would embrace them both and would be willing to teach her volunteer how to best support them. Emotional support, playdates, outings, and just support for basic life needs are so desperately needed in this home with two loving ladies (one little and one grown!). Will you be that special person for this special family???

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