About Us
getting to the heart work a little bit faster
Cloth + Foster launched in Vancouver, Washington in 2020 to help provide tangible goods for the foster community and to help lighten the burden on social workers, families, and most importantly children experiencing foster care. During 2022, Cloth + Foster filled more than 200 social worker requests for tangible goods as children and families navigated foster care. With community support, we also processed more than 15,000 lbs of clothing donations during Q4.
When families don't have to worry about how to provide for the immediate tangible needs of a foster child entering their home, it allows them to get to the heart work of loving a little bit faster.
What our community is saying about us
Cloth + Foster is the purest and only true organization I’ve encountered that actually touches and impacts the lives of children and youth experiencing foster care directly... They are truly touching and changing lives.
Cloth+ Foster ... go beyond the basics every day, considering who the children are, their backgrounds and culture include, and sometimes the extra of thinking how special they would feel if the child knew the product was picked “just for them”. They do this anonymously and tirelessly, not just for me but for anyone that asks.
Y'all are amazing! The delivery absolutely blew that families mind!! It's a single Dad and his 5 year old daughter. Dad and I could barely talk over the sound of sheer joy coming from "L" as she discovered all her new toys and such.
