BE THE DIFFERENCE – change lives, create and strengthen children and families and transform NE Ohio’s communities.
No matter your schedule or time constraints, there are plenty of ways to get involved and help current and former foster youth make permanent connections with families.
Find what brings out your passion to make the world a better place for foster youth.
Ready to get started? Below are some of the popular ways to give.
You can rest assured that your charitable donation, large or small (because every penny counts), will help make a difference in the life of a current and/or former foster youth. Every dollar of your donation and every hour you spend volunteering goes directly toward supporting finding permanent connections for children and young adults from foster care. Because of your support we can continue creating connections, training specialized families, and getting the word out by speaking engagements, events, and through the media.
Creating Connections:
Your donation will insure that foster youth have a chance to meet as many prospective families as possible through family finding, child-specific recruitment, matchings, mentoring programs, monthly support programs for families and foster youth. We also started a new program called TBRI®, where families learn how to connect with their foster and adoptive children in a loving and caring way.
Training:
NOAS is committed to helping families who want to adopt, foster or mentor every step of the way and will provide lifelong support and assistance to families at no charge. Our highly educated team works with urgency to help families by offering: parenting preparation through pre-placement education classes, home study services, on-going training, post-placement support and a variety of other services to help create lifelong connections for foster youth.
Getting The Word Out:
Your donation help us find prospective host families for young adults who have aged out of the system and adoptive families in our communities through events, media, speaking engagements and more.
Did you know you can donate to NOAS through your workplace charitable giving campaign? Workplace giving is an easy, safe, and cost-efficient way to make tax-deductible donations to NOAS. Ask your place of employment today how you can get started.
Giving made easy. One of the first lessons we learn as children are that coins add up to dollars. Find your extra coins and take them to your local Coinstar Center to turn your coins into cash to donate to NOAS. Your spare change can be the difference to a foster youth finding a loving permanent family. Loose coins change lives.
