Fostering Hope
At Stitched Together, we believe every foster child deserves to feel seen, supported, and deeply loved — especially those navigating foster care for the first time. As a local nonprofit, our mission is simple but powerful: To Foster HOPE in the lives of children and teens in the foster system. Through community-driven education programs, Hope Cases, and our Back-to-School Bash we’re stitching together brighter futures — one child at a time.
Did you know that many foster children are removed from their homes without any personal belongings?
Stitched together provides Hope Cases for children who are entering the foster care system. Hope Cases are age-specific bags filled with essentials and comfort items to ease their transition.
We are a 501(c)(3) who work with children in the foster care system in Central Ohio. Stitched Together was created to meet a need for kids in the foster care system and give them a little HOPE during an uncertain time in their life. Stitched Together also aims to bring awareness and education to our community on both foster kids and foster care.
What We Do
Back-to-School Bash
During back-to-school time, we partner with Fostering:Love and Alicia's Closet for a Back to School Bash. Stitched Together provides backpacks filled with school supplies to the foster community.
Hope Cases
Hope Cases are age-specific bags filled with comfort items and essentials for children who are entering the foster care system. Hope Cases ease their transition with something to call their own. We currently offer Hope Cases for preemie, baby (newborn-24 months), kid (2t-12 years old), teen (13-18 years old). All items are new with the exception of books. We accept well-loved used books.
Education
We aim to bring awareness to our community about foster care and issues facing the foster kids and families. We love to partner with churches, schools, work places and groups. Want more information on becoming a foster care or curious about what foster care is? We can help!
