My Bag, My Story is a non-profit organization working to improve the lives of children in foster care by providing them with backpacks and duffel bags for them to use to carry their personal belongings in when moving from home to home. It is hard to think that sometimes these foster children use trashbags. Join this heartfelt initiative that addresses a painful truth faced by many children in foster care and donate today.
"I started My Bag My Story after becoming a foster parent and watching children always having their belongings in a trash bag or grocery sack or nothing. Everyone
kept saying this was normal. I said it doesn’t have to be normal, so I set out to have
bags made for kids,"
said Cara Finger, Founder of My Bag My Story.
"Having a bag to
call your own instead of a trash bag gives a child dignity and makes them feel valued. A bag seems so small but makes a huge difference in their foster care experience. Making a child feel like they are worth more than trash is so important to me."
For every bag purchased, My Bag, My Story donates a high-quality, durable bag to a foster child.
"These bags are more than just practical; they are symbols of support and recognition, affirming the inherent value and worth of every child in the foster care system. Through this gesture, it not only provides something functional, but it also helps foster children feel seen and valued."
