BLUE BAG PROGRAM
Blue Bag Program
Blue Bag Program supplies blue bags
for the children containing basic necessities.
The Blue Bag Program was designed to support children entering the Foster Care System by providing them with essential items as they transition into their new environment.
REFPA provides a new duffel bag to children experiencing foster care, each bag is filled with clothing and pajamas that are age, gender and season specific. Each bag has a few toys, books, and comfort items such as a blanket and stuffed animal.
Support for older youth:
For youth eight to eighteen years of age, REFPA provides gift cards. These gift cards empower older children to purchase items they personally need, helping them adjust and transition with dignity and autonomy.
Our Blue Bag Program thrives due to the generous support from our community. If you are interested in making a donation, here are two simple ways to make a contribution.
Make a monetary donation through our secure PayPal link.
Your contributions enable us to continue to purchase the essential items and gift cards for children/youth experiencing Foster Care.
Your support is invaluable for making the Blue Bag Program a success, your generosity is truly appreciated and can make a significant difference in the lives of local Foster youth.
Thank you for your consideration!
