Relationships matter, and for kids and teens in foster care, having a trusted adult can be the difference between feeling confident or feeling unimportant and unwanted.
Whether it’s a mentor, foster parent, or adoptive family, AASK is committed to helping kids and teens in Arizona’s foster care system find the support they need. Combined with the one-on-one, hands-on support these mentors and families receive, children in foster care can rebuild their sense of self-worth, spark their imagination, and set off on a path of a lifetime of success.
When you donate to AASK, you’re helping grow the programs that give children hope for a better tomorrow. And with the increased tax maximums for Qualifying Foster Care Charitable Organizations (QFCO) your dollar goes further and helps more children in Arizona’s foster care system.
Give now, and your gift could be eligible for a dollar-for-dollar credit on your state taxes up to $526 when filing single and up to $1,051 when filing jointly. Visit aask-az.org/donate to learn more or donate today.
For more information on children in foster care eligible for adoption, call Aid to Adoption of Special Kids at 602.930.4900, or visit www.aask-az.org.
Editor's note: Ms. Gaieck is a copywriter at AASK - Aid to Adoption of Special Kids. She will be submitting articles regularly to the Daily Independent at YourValley.net in hopes to find children forever families.
