ALCares4Kids
ALCares4Kids was renamed in 2022 from the original Kinship Foster Care program to expand our support to homeless children. It started in 2018 as a partnership with The Cincinnati Children’s Hospital CHECK Foster Care Center. The CHECK program provides screening, physical evaluations, and clinical care for children living in foster and kinship care in Hamilton County. Since then, Jack’s Closet in Anderson Township, Ohio, Monkey Beans in Sardinia, Ohio, The Vinedresser in Florence, Ky., and Tabitha’s Closet in Morrow, Ohio, which provide recycled clothing to foster and kinship care families, have been added as partners of ALGC. Tabitha’s Closet also provides clothing to homeless children. We provide packages of new undergarments, socks, diapers, baby wipes, and hygiene items monthly to each partner, depending on their need. ALGC provided 11,378 items to 7,529 children during 2024-2025, an increase of 22.5% compared to last year. Since its inception, 23,293 children have benefited from these distributions.
