ORGANIZATION: TRANSFORMATIONS BY CHARLOTTE ANGELS

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 1 person is interested

Our Love Box(r) program provides community and holistic support to fostering families, including caregivers, children experiencing foster care, and biological/adopted children. This wrap-around support empowers caregivers to continue to do the important and meaningful work of being foster parents. Each Love Box(r) volunteer/group will be matched with a local foster family based on location and compatibility. 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 support also leads to increased placement stability, reducing the high rate of turnover that often occurs in the foster care system.

About TRANSFORMATIONS BY CHARLOTTE ANGELS

Location:

PO BOX 77755, CHARLOTTE, NC 28271, US

Mission Statement

The Charlotte Angels mission is to walk alongside children, youth, and families in the foster care community by offering consistent support through intentional giving, relationship building, and mentorship.

Description

We provide support to foster families and children in our community. Over half of foster homes close within the first year due to the lack of support. Not only do the children experience the initial trauma of being removed from their home, but they then experience another layer of trauma if they are forced to move to another home or homes. We step in to make sure these homes can stay open, providing stability and consistency. Without community support, we can’t match families with assistance or meet their needs.

Our organization offers two main programs:

Our Love Box program matches a volunteer in the community with a foster family.

Our Dare to Dream mentorship program matches a mentor with a youth in foster who is at risk of aging out of the system.
