On behalf of our families, THANK YOU!
Thanks to your collective generosity, we raised over $14,000 during our 2016 Spring Appeal! These funds help provide our children and families with the opportunities and enriching experiences they deserve, over the summer months and throughout the year. 

Positive educational and social experiences are essential in a child's healthy development and happiness at any stage in life -- experiences like summer camp for kids in our foster care and adoptive families, a trip to the aquarium for a family who couldn't otherwise afford it, or a day trip to Martha's Vineyard for the young women in our TLC residence. 

Because of your contribution to our Spring Appeal, CFCS families will have the opportunities in the months ahead to enjoy life and make lasting, happy memories.

Donor spotlight:  CFCS' Heroic High Schooler!
Brookline High School's rising junior, Jake G., has made a lasting impression on CFCS. Jake founded the student-run philanthropy club, Give A Gift, and first donated to our agency last December. 

Most recently, Jake and his father (pictured left) delivered a bounty of summer-themed goodies for our families: beach pails and shovels, puzzles, art kits, 240 children's books, & more!
CFCS Adoption social worker, Emily, recently exclaimed: "Those beach toys are such huge hits with my kids!! I have a 3-year-old client and I have never seen him happier than when I gave him the sand pails, castle makers,  whiffle ball set, and other goodies. So nice!!"

Thank you, Jake, for making a difference in our families' lives and bringing smiles to their faces. You're an inspiration to all of us!
