CURRENT INITIATIVES of PROUD PARTNERS OF CLARK COUNTY FOSTER CARE
BACK-TO-SCHOOL DRIVE FOR FOSTER CARE
![BTS_Donation Drive (1)](Family Services/BTS_Donation Drive (1).png)
The Proud Partners of Clark County Foster Care are joining forces to help our children and teens in foster care go Back-to-School with our donation drive. We are collecting backpacks, new packages of socks and underwear for youth ages 5-18, and school supplies like disinfectant wipes, tissue, paper towels, and gallon Ziplock bags. Call Peggy's Attic at (702) 455-5424 to arrange your donation. Donations for Back-to-School will be accepted until July 29, 2024.
You can also ship your donation to:
Clark County Family Services
ATTN: Peggy's Attic

Las Vegas, NV 89101
The Back-to-School Drive for foster care is intended to help offset the cost of caring for children who are currently active in Clark County Family Services foster care. We appreciate everything our caregivers are doing to help our children in need and we hope that the new backpacks and school supplies will help ease the financial burden of sending children in foster care back-to-school.
The Back-to-School Drive for foster care is supported by a community committee including Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, Foster Change, Foster Kinship, Eagle Quest, Commissioner Marilyn Kirkpatrick, CASA Las Vegas, Children's Advocacy Alliance Nevada, Commissioner Jim Gibson, Trilogy by Shea Homes, Canyon Ridge Christian Church, Picerne, Western Elite, Raise the Future, Stage House Las Vegas, First Med, and Clark County Family Services. If you would like to become an event sponsor, make a donation, or join our community committee, please contact dfspartnerships@clarkcountynv.gov.
Additionally, we are seeking volunteers for our Back-to-School Gear Giveaway distribution between July 31-August 3.

THANK YOU TO ALL OF THE SPONSORS, DONORS, AND VOLUNTEERS WHO MADE THE 2023 GIVE JOY TOY DRIVE A SUCCESS!
We set out on a mission to GIVE JOY and provide a special holiday gift to all of our kids in foster care. And because of YOU, the holiday season was a little brighter for our infants, children, and teens in foster care. First off, thank you to our amazing volunteers who generously gave their time, especially during the busy holiday season. We could not offer this event without your kindness. Next, we send our sincere gratitude to our sponsors and donors. Your contributions absolutely GIVE JOY to our kids! Thank you for supporting this effort with your generous gifts.
GIVE JOY not only brought smiles to our children's faces, but it also made our caregivers' lives easier. Please take a moment to watch this touching testimonial from one of our foster parents on what GIVE JOY meant to her family.
