Inspiring communities to bring dignity and hope to youth in foster care.
关于我们
Comfort Cases was founded in 2013 with the mission of inspiring communities to bring hope and dignity to foster youth. Comfort Cases believes that every child has the right to a more humane experience in foster care, and that starts by providing each child in care with a Comfort Case to hold their belongings instead of a trash bag. With the initial goal of helping hundreds, Comfort Cases has dramatically expanded its reach since its inception having delivered more than 95,000 cases to children and youth ranging from newborns to the age of 21 in all 50 states plus Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico. With Comfort Cases distributed to social service agencies, private agencies, emergency domestic violence shelters, family shelters, schools, and police departments, the reach has been broad to children and youth. With exciting developments on the horizon, Comfort Cases continues to grow. While engaged in the process of planning for national expansion, Comfort Cases has established supporters in all 50 states who want play a meaningful role in fulfilling Comfort Cases’ presence and impact. Children deserve the very best from their communities, and Comfort Cases believes it is our responsibility and our privilege to come together to effect positive change in the lives of children and youth in need in foster care.

This month we hosted another successful Junior Pioneer Day! Our families came together to not only celebrate Election Day, but also to give back to the community. We partnered with Comfort Cases, Inc. and were able to pack 20 backpacks full of essentials and comfort items for children in foster care. It was truly heartwarming to see the younger generation coming together for others! “Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see.” – John F. Kennedy #wearepioneer #confortcases #nomoretrashbags #juniorpioneerday

The Pathways Program was created to support applicants to the Comfort Cases scholarship programs by providing resources, training, and encouragement. The Pathways Program will offer helpful resources, mentorship, inspiring messages, and more! We would also like to create a safe community where you can share your stories. ?? ? Based on the overwhelming response to past scholarship applications, we wanted to create a community where you can learn more about scholarship opportunities, get encouragement, and have access to experts in career development, financial aid, and life skills. Our scholarship program goes beyond financial assistance; it’s a comprehensive support system. In addition to monetary aid, recipients receive monthly Hope Boxes filled with comfort items and essentials for life after transitioning out of the foster care system. They also benefit from mentorship and access to valuable educational resources, empowering them to navigate the challenges of adulthood with confidence and support. ?? ?
