Comfort Cases' mission is to inspire communities to bring dignity and hope to youth in foster care. On any given day, there are approximately 437,500 children in foster care in the United States.

Every child deserves to pack their belongings in a special bag that they can call their very own. Every child deserves to have a cozy new pair of pajamas, a brand new warm blanket, and a new stuffed animal to hug during the traumatic transition into foster care. We are committed to engaging communities and educating the public about the issues facing youth in foster care. We believe in the importance of encouraging young people to lead by example and to take action to alleviate the suffering of children in the system. We provide volunteer opportunities for all ages so that the entire community can truly be involved together.
