Christmas Gifts
December 2021
Christmas time is here! Children in foster care love the holidays as much as any other child, and every foster parent tries their hardest to make sure the holiday season is magical. Sweet Potato's Closet gets into contact directly with foster families and gets one wishlist item per child. Everything on this Amazon wishlist is picked out for a specific child so they are guaranteed to love it! These kids deserve an amazing Christmas, and we are so happy to help brighten their holidays.
Thank you so much for your generosity, and I hope you have a great holiday season!

We are the Village - T Shirt Campaign
August 2021
These shirts proudly declare that you are part of the village that helps care for these amazing kids! It truly takes a village to raise children, especially trauma affected children, and we are so thrilled that you are part of it.
We raised $180! Thank you so much for your support.
Shoe Drive
May 2021
Sweet Potato's Closet partnered with Kiwanis and Every Child to provide shoes to local foster children.
Kids deserve shoes that look rad, and feel great too! New shoes can dramatically improve their self confidence.
We were able to give over 100 pairs of shoes to local children.
Thank you for your generosity!
