Get Started
Sign Up to Volunteer at Comfort Cases - Tuesday Special Assistance Shift

Special Assistance Volunteer Shifts

Volunteers needing special assistance will now have a designated volunteer day and time.

Every Tuesday 11:00 am to 12:30 pm, we will set aside space and tasks that better align with the skill set our volunteers are able to offer us, as well as ensure a mutually rewarding experience. This includes tasks that will allow our volunteers to work at their own pace, gain new skills, and improve their confidence while at the same time supporting increased demand and volume for our Comfort Cases.

Volunteers needing special assistance and their special educators/aides, please use this online sign-up, as it reflects the dedicated Tuesday shift.

Bookmark Kits

Kids Helping Kids at Home

Can’t come to our center? Create some bookmarks at home! These handmade bookmarks add a special touch to each Comfort Case, letting children who often feel alone know that other kids care about what they are going through. Make a $25 donation using the link below and we will send you a bookmark making kit along with a self-addressed stamped envelope so you can send them back to us when you’re done.

Donation Drives

Host a Donation Drive

We are always in need of items to put in Comfort Cases for children in foster care. You can host a Donation Drive no matter where you live. Drop the items off at our center, ask your donors to shop our Wish List, or ship the collected items to us using Give Back Box.
