Maxine's Closet is a fundraiser in memory of  Maxine Thurston-Fischer, PhD, a trailblazer and activist in the social work field. Maxine was also a serious fashionista. In keeping with Maxine's efforts on behalf of marginalized children and youth, Maxine's Closet will generate awareness of and support for Florida Foster Care Review through fashion and design.

All proceeds from the sale of items at Maxine's Closet will be donated to FFCR and will be used to further the organization's work to promote positive outcomes for children and youth in foster care.

And remember: be sure to bring your new or gently used handbags and shoes for donation to Dress for Success!

About Florida Foster Care Review 

Established in 1989 by a United Way committee, Florida Foster Care Review promotes the safety, well-being and long-term success of abused and neglected children in our community. Through special recruitment and training, volunteers review cases of youth in foster care to ensure they are safe and receiving needed services, intensively promoting positive outcomes. Together with child welfare professionals, Florida Foster Care Review also works to ensure that children and youth leaving the foster care system have someone they can call family. Through all its programs, Florida Foster Care Review tracks and analyzes outcomes in order to advocate for system changes that improve children's lives.
