What is Foster Love?

Foster Love

Foster Love is a program here at BYU that partners with Utah Foster Care to provide childcare for foster families here in Provo. Once a month on a Friday evening, you will have the opportunity to volunteer for an event where you watch foster kids, play games, eat dinner, and have fun!

How do I get involved?

BECOME A VOLUNTEER

Volunteer Description: Volunteers will participate in group activities with kids. Activities will include indoor group games, crafts, team-building exercises, outdoor games, and other recreational activities.

Volunteer Commitment:
If you want to get involved email the Lead Program Director Callie Storm at fosterlove@byu.edu for more information.

If the program directors aren't in the Y-Serve office during the designated office hours, check in WSC 5519.

BECOME A LEADER

Volunteer Leader Description: There are two kinds of leadership positions: Lead Program Director and Program Director. A program only has one Lead Program Director, but multiple Program Directors. Leaders are generally responsible for overseeing recruitment, retention, and reflection with volunteers. They also coordinate service with community partners and ensure their program runs smoothly. Volunteer leaders may also share the responsibilities of volunteers as outlined in the Volunteer Description. For more information, visit our section called Be a Leader!

Volunteer Leader Commitment: In addition to volunteering, Volunteer leaders commit to a 1-hour monthly team meeting to discuss needs and make plans for the program.

Foster Love has honestly made the difference in my semester. Being able to dedicate just 2 hours a week to kids who benefit me more than I think I could ever help them with their sunshine and innocence was what I needed to get through my first semester of college. The other volunteers became my friends and I always looked forward to coming and regretted when I couldn’t. I loved every minute of it!
