... 
 Did  you know that FCAOC is a group of foster parents and community  members who are interested in helping foster families in their  efforts and we are NOT funded with county, state or federal funds?   We are YOUR organization and our main support comes from our Thrift  Store proceeds and community members and organizations who believe in  our cause.  Please help spread the word to other community members  who want to do their part to help us.  Be sure to tell them that we  are a registered 501c3 charity so they know that their donation is  tax deductable.    |  |
