A Bit of Background
Foster Together, formerly South County Foster Closet, was created in March 2018 when a group of moms in St. Louis, Missouri decided to take a step of faith. They began collecting clothing, shoes, and baby items to be sorted and passed along to children in foster care, free of charge. Since then, thousands of children in the St. Louis area and beyond have been impacted by this ministry, turned 501c3. Our prayer is that God's love would be shared with every child we serve.
When we heard we were going to get a placement of two young siblings, Foster Together quickly provided all our immediate needs. They delivered to our front porch a complete season of clothing for each of our foster children along with linens, pull-ups, kid size dishes and a few toys! It is great to have support from those who understand why you are opening your home to these sweet children.

What We Do
COLLECTING DONATIONS
Foster Together wouldn't exist without the generous support of our community.
​
Please note that we are NOT accepting used toys, stuffed animals, and books at this time due to limited space. Other items we are NOT able to take at any time: car seats, cribs/beds, unpackaged underwear, and any items that are stained, damaged, or missing parts.
​
SERVING FOSTER FAMILIES
We are committed to providing stylish, new and like-new clothing and shoes to foster families (including kinship and kids in the first year of adoption), free of charge and as quickly as possible. We carry all sizes from newborn to adult. If you are a foster parent or social worker, click here to let us know the gender, size, and season of clothing you need.
We ask all families to show placement paperwork to ensure that our donations support children in foster care. We can deliver in as little as a few days in St. Louis County, St. Louis City, St. Charles County, and Jefferson County. If you live outside our area, you can pick up at our store in Arnold, MO.
We do most of our communication through social media - come follow us!
