STUDENT-RUN
PARTNERED FOSTER HOMES
We're a nonprofit run entirely by University of Michigan students. We show up consistently -- through tutoring, pen pals and numerous organized fun and engaging activities -- because cosistency is the thing foster youth are so often denied.
WHAT WE DO
Six ways we show up
Tutoring
Weekly or biweekly academic support, building skills and confidence
Pen Pals
Ongoing letter exchanges that give kids a steady, caring connection
Holiday Gift Drive
Making sure every kid we work with has something to open in December
Group Trips
Awesome group trips, making sure everyone has a blast and creates some memories together!
Special Events
Crafts, egg hunts and other events specialized to what interests the kids
Fundraising
The engine behind everything else we do
