BLUE BAG PROJECT
Blue Bag Project
Blue Bag Program supplies blue bags
for the children containing basic necessities.
Before the Blue Bag Project began in 1999, a child who entered a new emergency foster home often came with nothing more than the clothes he or she was wearing. A child who was moved from one foster home to another would bring along a few items, often in a plastic bag.
Your donations allow REFPA to provide each child who is entering foster care (ages 0-8 yrs.), with a new duffel bag. The bag contains new clothes (gender specific, size, and season appropriate), new toys, books, and a handmade quilt and becomes the child's own property.
We provide approximately 200 Blue Bags per year.
