About us

Fostering Wishes is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Alamo, California. We partner with local foster care agencies to improve children’s quality of life and enable them to be self-sufficient as young adults. Fostering Wishes is 100% volunteer driven, and all of the proceeds directly support the children.

At Fostering Wishes, we envision a community that supports and nurtures every foster child in Contra Costa County. We support a variety of programs for children of all ages.
