Sorry, Child Care Not Available
Please note that we request that you find child care for your children while you are choosing your distribution items or shopping in the store.  If you must bring your children, plan on having them in your immediate control and supervision.  We cannot be responsible for your children and with furniture and large items being unloaded from trucks, etc; it is not a safe place to have your children unattended.

We have a video!…
Watch the video on You Tube HERE!
Please view it and leave messages of thanks for Roger Schoepf who donated his talents in putting the video together for us.  Rate the video to show your support and share it with friends, neighbors, family, business associates who might be interested in helping us help you!  It can’t hurt to get the word out about what foster parenting is all about and how the Foster Care Auxiliary helps support Foster Families in Orange County.

Another way you might want to help...
is by joining our support group to help foster families when a traumatic event has happened to a foster child.  Would you like to lend a supporting ear, take a meal, or help in some other way?  Let me know if you are interested in joining this small group to be called on in an emergency.
