Comfort Cases are backpacks filled with comfort and personal care items for youth entering the foster care system. Over 700 children enter the foster care system every single day. Most are given a trash bag to carry their belongings. These children have been neglected and often feel like they don't matter. Many do not own a toothbrush or have a pair of pajamas. At Comfort Cases, we believe that every child deserves to feel a sense of dignity. Every child deserves to pack their belongings in a special bag that they can call their very own.
