Big Day of Giving
Big Day of Giving 2024
Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey and for inspiring us to reach higher and dream bigger!
There are more than 3,000 youth in foster care in the Greater Sacramento Region. Each year we fight stigma, provide support, educate, and advocate for local youth and families.
Thank you to our incredible donors who helped pave pathways to permanency for youth in foster care this Big Day of Giving! We exceeded our initial goal and raised an astounding $56,447. Your generosity will provide vital support services for youth in foster care, helping them connect to the safe, loving families they need and deserve.
Thanks to the incredible support from United Agencies Insurance, Inc., Nugget Markets, and Modern Woodmen, your contribution went twice as far to help youth currently in foster care because as each donation was matched up to $27,500!
Your continued support truly makes a difference!

- 122 youth were placed with stable, loving Resource Families capable of providing them with the unconditional support all children need and deserve.
