We bridge divides by bringing people together: connecting individuals and organizations to help communities tackle their toughest challenges.
Foster Grandparents are not part of the "Foster Care" program. They are individuals at 55 or older who generously donate their time to mentor/tutor children in schools, daycare centers, after school/summer programs and in Head Start Centers. Volunteers serve 15-40 hours per week, working to help children achieve success academically, socially, or developmentally. They are the classroom "Grandparents" who are there to provide additional support to struggling students.
