Our Mission

Every child deserves to be remembered.

This powerful mission statement drives everything we do at FORGOTTEN KIDS CORPORATION. We believe that no child should feel invisible, overlooked, or forgotten by society. Our commitment extends beyond providing basic needs – we focus on creating lasting connections, building self-worth, and ensuring that every child knows they matter.

What We Do

FORGOTTEN KIDS CORPORATION is a nonprofit organization that provides essential resources and support to children in foster care and other underserved situations, helping them thrive. Our comprehensive approach addresses the multifaceted challenges these children face daily.

We work directly with foster families, group homes, and community organizations to identify children who need additional support. Our programs are designed to fill critical gaps in services, providing everything from basic necessities to educational support and emotional guidance. Through partnerships with local businesses, volunteers, and other nonprofits, we create a network of care that surrounds each child with the resources they need to succeed.

The Children We Serve

The children who benefit from our programs come from diverse backgrounds but share common experiences of uncertainty, trauma, and transition. Many have been removed from their homes due to abuse, neglect, or family crisis. Others are aging out of the foster care system without adequate support networks.

These children often face unique challenges including frequent school changes, limited personal belongings, difficulty forming lasting relationships, and reduced access to extracurricular activities. Our programs are specifically designed to address these gaps and provide stability in their often chaotic lives.

Our Approach

01

Identify Needs

We work closely with caseworkers, foster parents, and facility staff to identify children who would benefit from our services.

02

Develop Support Plans

Each child receives a customized support plan based on their individual needs, interests, and circumstances.

03

Provide Resources

We deliver essential items, services, and ongoing support directly to children and their caregivers.

04

Follow Up

Regular check-ins ensure our support continues to meet evolving needs and creates lasting positive impact.
