Mankato Foster Care Donations

What We Do

Therapeutic Foster Care is a highly-supportive, professional service geared to the best outcomes for children in foster care and families. It is a distinct, powerful, and unique model of care that provides youth with a nurturing and therapeutic family environment. Our approach to fostering is met through the nurturing, modeling and teaching provided by foster parents and through the therapeutic interventions, guidance, support and education provided by mental health practitioners.

Project Location

Collect supplies at your church congregation and deliver to 710 South 2nd St., Mankato, MN 56001.

What You Can Do

Most often when a youth first comes into foster care they come with very little or nothing at all. We would like to help foster youth and foster families during that first day/ night when things are very busy and there is lots of unknown. We are working hard to help however possible to ease this transition.

Project Details

Needed items include gift cards for Target/Walmart/restaurants, as well as pajamas for children (any size). This would be used for all our foster families in the Mankato Region as they receive new foster care placements. Most often, these are not planned and items are needed that day.
