Friends of Foster Kids (FOFK) is a non-profit organization founded in Macomb County, Michigan in 2008. From Macomb County alone there are approximately 900 children in foster care each year. Many of these children have never experienced the joy of receiving a gift at Christmas. FOFK provides a “Christmas” for foster children who have been removed from their homes due to abuse and neglect and placed in temporary housing or shelters. In a season for family, granting a child’s wish speaks softly of unconditional love from people who care.
