Our ministries

When a child is placed with a new foster family, they very often arrive with only the clothing they are wearing. It is then up to the foster parents to find or buy necessities for the child—clothing, toiletry items, shoes, etc.

 Through donations, Closet 1:27 provides clothing, shoes, beds, bedding, and necessities to newly placed foster children.  How does it work? The foster parents of any newly placed child are given information about Closet 1:27 when they accept the child into their home. Their caseworker then contacts us and we put together an order based on the child’s gender, age, and size and deliver it to the home within 24 hours. This allows the foster parents to spend more time getting to know their new child, rather than having to go out and running around town for basic necessities for their child.
