Mission

Providing practical items & comforts to children in Foster Care while supporting the families who care for them. At The village foster children in New Jersey, we proudly serve foster children and foster families across Village Monmouth County and Village Ocean County. As part of The Foster Family Village, we’re committed to making sure every child feels seen, supported, and valued.

Vission

A place where children in Foster Care are free to choose things they love and enjoy at no cost to their Foster Family. A supportive community that hears the concerns of Foster Parents and offers a network of others in similar situations. The Village NJ is building a safe space across Village Monmouth County and Village Ocean County where every child and family in the foster care system feels connected, valued, and supported through The Village Foster Closet and beyond.

Testimonials

What Our Families Say

The countless times I was able to get new size clothing, age-appropriate toys, and just even the everyday items like diapers and wipes at The Village has been huge.

The Village has connected so many families and provided a way for all of us to give back to each other.

Kids feel confident when they can go into a non crowded place and pick out the things they want to wear instead of being told what to wear.

The Village truly knows that to raise a child in the world, it’s not just about the family unit, it’s about supporting one another.

The Village was there for us - not just with diapers and baby gear, but with the kind of emotional support only fellow foster parents could offer.

The Village has given us more than just supplies - they’ve given us community, understanding, and friendships that have become a lifeline.

Our family has made lasting friendships, and joined a safe space to share stories, frustrations, accomplishments and material goods through The Village.

The simple supplies that The Village provides mean so much when you’re scrambling with sometimes only hours notice of a new placement.
