A local nonprofit continues to be a beacon of hope for foster children for 17 years.

The first-ever Hanania Holiday Giveback had a great success with new toys, children's clothes and other necessities donated to the Foster Closet.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Foster Closet, a free resource for Northeast Floridas foster parents and relatives, are in dire need of baby items due to an uptick of babies placed into foster care last month. Foster Closet in Jacksonville needs clothing, childrens accessories, toys and childrens furniture and more, to help take care of the foster children entrusted to them. "With over 70 children coming into care in June... we need Convertibles, Boosters with Backs and Infant Car Seats with their bases! Remember they all must have their manufacturer labels and have one year of life left (less than six years old)," Foster Closet said.
