Partnerships
The Children’s Fund works within the realm of public-private partnerships to fund our foster youth programs. In collaboration with our partners we fund direct services for our youth including workshops, tutoring, scholarships, and survival funds; build capacity within existing institutions; and sponsor conferences and training to ensure the life and educational support systems are in place to serve our youth.
