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.

Everyone loves giving toys during the holidays and we love providing an easy way to give to local kids who have been affected by foster care!
HOLIDAY GIFT DRIVE
NEW: Extended Foster Care Online Gift Tree!
This year we have been asked by DCYF to provide Christmas gifts for young adults (and their kids) apart of the Extended Foster Care (EFC) program. These young adults who have aged out of traditional foster care are often overlooked during the holiday season. We will update this page with an Amazon Wish List with their wished for gifts. These gifts will be picked up by EFC social workers who will deliver these gifts to these young adults just in time for Christmas!
Give to kids who have been affected by foster care!
