Why We Give

It's always a pleasure to contribute to Friends of Children because I know 100% of every dollar given goes to helping children, and to children with the most need.

I am not able to be a big contributor yet, although I aspire to be one some day, but I know my little offerings are made larger in the capable hands of Friends of Children.

Friends of Children stretches the value of every dollar donated to create the greatest impact on children's lives. The few administrative costs we incur are underwritten by the grants we seek from private foundations.

Your Donation Will Change Lives!

Your decision to make a tax deductible donatation to Friends of Children will impact the lives and outcomes of children, lifting their spirits, giving them a better future, and for some, saving their lives.

Please give as generously as you can to those children who have so little, and for whom so little can do so much.

Many of the things we need can wait. The child cannot. Right now is the time his bones are being formed, his blood is being made, and his senses are being developed. To him we cannot answer 'Tomorrow.' His name is 'Today.'
