THE STORY

At Kits of Hope, we believe that all children who have experienced trauma deserve love, hope and joy. 

​

Every year, nearly 500,000 children are impacted by neglect, abuse and trauma and spend time, sometimes years in the foster care system.  It is hard to imagine a child being taken from their homes by strangers, often without their beloved belongings that they are attached to, leaving children feeling lonely and terrified. 

​

Though our curated Hope Kits created by Pediatrician Dr. Eko, you can help to make the transition into the foster care system a little easier by sharing  love, hope and healing with a child that needs it.  When children have a chance to have unstructured play, this promotes self-confidence, social and cognitive skills, and resilience in the face of trauma. These skills are crucial building blocks for success and personal fulfillment in adulthood.
