VFC provides support and advocacy for the abused, neglected and abandoned children in Hillsborough County.
关于我们
Voices for Children was founded in 1986 as the Child Advocacy Guild, Inc. The original stated purpose of the organization was to initiate fund raising events and methods and to direct those funds to appropriate activities of the Guardian ad Litem Program; to promote awareness of the activities of the program and to encourage volunteer resources; and to encourage community activity and awareness. Voices for Children (VFC) started with a need. The State of Florida requires that the interests of every abused and neglected child be represented by a Guardian ad Litem (GAL) in court. While the benefits of this are immeasurable to the child, there aren't enough Guardian Advocates for all of Hillsborough County's abused and neglected children. The GAL program doesn't receive adequate public funding. That's where VOICES helps. Voices for Children is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide the volunteer guardians the financial means necessary for Guardian ad Litem to continue this vital service to children. Currently, the program can serve only about 67% of these children. Our goal is to provide 100% representation for the abused, neglected and abandoned children of Hillsborough County. Through a variety of private funding initiatives, Voices is able to provide the GAL Program with: Increase volunteer recruitment efforts. Identify and develop additional resources and support in order to increase representation of abused and neglected children. Provide increased training opportunities for staff, volunteers and board members through conferences, training and networking. Provide a unified voice to convey the importance of the work and services the program provides to dependent children.

Thank you to St. John's Episcopal School for this incredible donation of hygiene/personal care products to our Fresh Faced Kids Donation Drive! They collected thousands of items to help foster kids and their Grade 8 sorted and boxed it! Hygiene products are frequently asked for items for kids in foster care and are needed year-round.

Barley and Lorne truly enjoy spending time with some of their youngest supporters. This year, during the Great American Teach-In on Nov. 13th, they visited kids at Cypress Creek Elementary and Boyette Springs Elementary schools. The kids learn all about what our best boys do to help foster kids through our Courthouse Dog Program while sharing cuddles and pets! ???? #CourthouseDog #FosterCare #SupportFosterKids #CommunityInvolvement #GreatAmericanTeachIn #WeAreVFC

Jayla was excited to have Lorne with her for her forensic interview and medical exam. Lorne walked her back to the exam room and helped her settle in. He helped Jayla not to be nervous and feel safe. They played together when she was done and shared pets and cuddles. She knows she'll always have a friend in Lorne. Support Lorne in his mission to help as many foster kids as possible by donating to our Light Up the Holidays Match Campaign at https://lnkd.in/eTYzkWXE. #FosterCare #SupportFosterKids #LightUpTheHolidays #CommunitySupport #fosterssavelives #kindnessmatters #fosterkids #fosterkidsmatter #givefromtheheart #WeAreVFC

THERE'S JUST 12 DAYS LEFT TO HIT OUR $20K GOAL to make the HOLIDAYS BRIGHT FOR FOSTER KIDS!! Please donate today at https://lnkd.in/eTYzkWXE. Here's just one story of how your generosity helped a needy kid. MEET MADISON! Madison entered care after she and her mom became homeless and living out of their car. Because of her mom's ongoing struggles, she wasn't even receiving the basic care of food, proper hygiene, and regular school attendance. Since entering foster care, Madison is thriving and dreams of becoming a fashion designer. She recently had a birthday and had no family to celebrate with. Madison's Guardian Ad Litem contacted us to help make her birthday memorable by funding a birthday gift with a favorite Barbie and fabrics and materials for her fashion designer dreams. Along with providing critical life items like clothes, hygiene items, bedding, and school items, providing foster kids with the ability to pursue their dreams and passion is just as essential. And making sure they know someone cares enough to celebrate that they are in the world and matter can open doors of hope, trust, and possibilities. Sadly, there are so many more Madisons desperately needing our help. We know money is tight and times are tough, but they are even tougher for these truly deserving kids. Please donate this November to make twice the impact in the lives of foster kids! #SupportFosterKids #MakeADifference #HolidayGiving #FosterLove #HelpFosterKids #DonateNow #WeAreVFC
