Oakland County Foster Closet

Oakland County Foster Closet is a 100% volunteer, tax-exempt, non-profit organization, providing aid What We Do!

Foster Parents can be unprepared for a newly placed child in terms of having the right size or quantity of clothing and equipment required for a particular child. Often children arrive in their new foster home with only the clothes on their back. This frequently places a financial hardship on the Foster Family to provide for the immediate clothing needs of children.

OCFC friends. When a volunteer comes to our closet or they attend an event we are hosting, we all wear OCFC t-shirts. In the past, we have had people purchase them but that isnt the direction we think is best for our organization. We are looking for 2 more people, businesses, or groups to sponsor our shirts. The amount is $400 and we will be purchasing 250 shirts. We are a walking billboard, let us show off your business. If you would like to be a sponsor, please comment below and we will contact you.

This movie is causing a lot conversations about the very thing that we may be dealing with. If you have seen it, give us a review below. If you haven't seen it, I found a website called www.angel.com for a FREE Pay it Forward movie ticket to a local theater. I'm going July 16th at 6:10 at the Novi Emagine. Maybe I will see you there. In the area outside of the theatre has outdoor, live music too. Very fun spot to be on a Tuesday. For the Summer, the Emagine has $5 movies. I know what my Tuesdays are going to look like this Summer. - Michele
