The Cornerstone Initiative
The Cornerstone Initiative is a special sponsorship program designed to forge a powerful partnership between churches and Foster Pantry. The name reflects our shared belief that churches serve as the foundational cornerstones of our communities. Through this initiative, your church can become an essential pillar in supporting children and families navigating the foster care system.
A CHURCH PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM
How It Works
This program is aimed at gaining financial and tangible support from churches to provide stable, reliable funding for our foster closet operations. Consistent financial support is the single greatest need that allows us to plan for the future, secure supplies in bulk at a lower cost, and ensure we never have to turn away a child in need due to lack of resources.
​
Why Partner with Us?
-
A Shared Mission: This partnership is a direct way for your church to live out its mission of serving the most vulnerable in our community. Every dollar contributed through the Initiative is a tangible expression of compassion and hope.
-
Direct & Measurable Impact: You will know that your church’s contributions are directly providing brand-new clothing, school supplies, toiletries, and other essentials that restore dignity and confidence to a child in crisis. We provide clear, regular updates on the number of children served, ensuring you can see the impact of your support.
-
A Pathway for Your Congregation: The Cornerstone Initiative offers your congregation a simple, powerful way to get involved. Your church’s sponsorship can be paired with donation drives, volunteer days, and other hands-on opportunities for your members to directly serve children and families in foster care.
By joining The Cornerstone Initiative, your church becomes more than a donor; you become an active partner in building a stronger, more supportive foundation for every child in foster care.
