Foster Book Club is a book discovery and donation program for children, caregivers, and supporters of the foster care community.
A child reading a book

Foster Book Club promotes books:

- with foster care representation---a primary character who is in foster care or is no longer living with their bio parents,

- or with an inclusive theme that can resonate with kids in foster care.  

We believe...

Representation in books can boost reading engagement.​

We believe...

Reading more can help with cognitive development and communication skills.

We believe...

Good cognitive and communication skills can improve the chances of lifelong success and well-being.
