Our Mission

At Care For The Children, our vision is to see that the hungry, homeless and destitute receive a second chance in life. Our mission is to provide food, clothing and shelter to less fortunate families across the United States, as well as numerous Third World Countries. From our inception in 2005, we have constantly improved upon our goals to provide much needed assistance to those whom daily life is a struggle. That’s why our motto proves so true, “When We Care For The Children, We Care For The Future.”

Accountability

Care For The Children complies with all local, state and federal tax laws and believes accountability to the public is important and especially to you. Our pledge to you is that all donations are used for the stated purpose.

 

Clothing Distribution Voucher Program

Care For The Children recognizes that due to the current economic crisis, the number of families who need assistance has increased dramatically, while at the same time, those who provide services are experiencing hardships themselves. Therefore, Care For The Children sought out a process to provide a means of distributing clothing to families with children in need that is both innovative and cost effective. At the conclusion of our search, and after examining the data collected from many facets of the clothing industry, the Clothing Distribution Voucher Program was created.
