Pot Of Gold Recap Story:
In 2019, we donated items to boys and girls located at Aunt Martha’s Group home. In 2020, we had our annual pot of gold drive but Covid-19 postponed our ability to send items to youth. In 2021 we donated items from the previous year in addition to new items purchased and gave pots of gold to youth at the SOS Childern’s Villages Illinois.
SOS Children’s Villages Illinois offers an innovative approach to traditional foster care. Children benefit from the stability of remaining with their siblings as well as the support of neighboring SOS Illinois Foster Parents and the entire community. Learn more at sosillinois.org.
In 2022 we donated 56 green gift bags to foster youth across Chicago Village, Roosevelt Square, and Lockport Village. This year we plan to donate again with your help to support youth at SOS Children’s Villages Illinois.
Let’s make a stronger impact!
Check out our photos from previous donors and read testimonial quotes to see how the youth felt after receiving the donated items in their individual pots of gold from Foster Nest. Your donations this year will bring support to other deserving foster youth to receive a pot of gold filled with items and support our programs to positively impact foster youth.
