Beneficiaries: 'Children or young people'

Objectives: 3 The organisation?s purposes are: -the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage by providing support for children entering foster care. A new backpack filled with new comfort and personal care items for children entering foster care. When children are removed from their home most of them will either have the clothes they stand in or a carrier/bin bag of their belongings, we are trying to break this practice. Since many of the children entering the fostering system have been neglected or abused, we will try to give them a sense of self-respect by providing brand new items which they can call their own. And the backpack will be theirs to keep forever.
