Our Foster Friends Program hosts numerous fun events throughout the year to bring foster families together - not only to enjoy activities as a family unit, but to meet and connect with other foster families.  Making these activities available to youth in care is crucial for their social development and overall well being.

The Blue Ribbon Project is planning a visit to the zoo for foster families! Donate today to help a foster child experience a day at the zoo! Our goal for this fundraiser is $2600 - any donations raised beyond the cost of this event will go to other Foster Friends programming. 

A $25 donation buys zoo admission for 1 foster child

A $40 donation buys zoo admission + bus transportation for 1 foster child

A $45 donation buys zoo admission + bus transportation + snacks for 1 foster child

What foster parents are saying about their experience with Blue Ribbon Project’s Foster Friends Program:

“The kindness, generosity, and dignity shown to the children was remarkable. This experience wasn’t just about gifts; it was about making a child feel seen, valued, and cared for.”
