Compelled to Care is a multi-faceted ministry that was birthed by people who wanted a safe place to be with other people who know what it means to care for kids from hard places. We are less of a support group and more of a community full of imperfect people moving forward as we live out the gospel and care for the vulnerable.

The Foster Grad Gift Drive was started at Evergreen Christian Community in Olympia to support youth aging out of the foster care system in Thurston County.
GIVE TO YOUTH IN FOSTER CARE
The Foster Grad(uation) Gift Drive is an opportunity to buy graduation gifts for youth who are aging out of the foster care system and graduating from high school.
​
We are partnering with Evergreen Christian Community to celebrate graduating youth in foster care by collecting gift cards and house warming gifts for 13 Thurston County graduates!
​
The Evergreen Christian Community Crafter's Connection & the Quilting Group of Westwood Baptist Church are even donating quilts for each senior.
Let's work together to make these teens feel honored and celebrated for their great success!
Pick up the gift tags in the Evergreen Christian Community lobby
​
We will have gift tags in the church lobby Sunday, May 21st and 28th during both gatherings.
​
Choose a tag with an item off of a graduates wish list, purchase the items then return them on June 4th in the lobby during both gatherings.
​
*Gifts can also be dropped off in the ECC Church Office from 8:30am-4:30pm M-Th & before noon on Fridays.
​
Amazon Wish List
​
You can purchase items off our Amazon wish list then we will assemble the care packages and deliver them to graduation party hosted by DCYF!
