The most leveraged gift you can give.
Becoming a sustaining partner turns one-time generosity into the predictability that lets F4F plan. Families know support is coming. Regional offices can staff against reliable revenue. Foster families get the kind of help that doesn’t disappear after a fundraising appeal.
Why monthly matters more than the total.
A donor who gives $50 once helps. A donor who gives $25 a month for a year helps in a structurally different way — that $300 across twelve months funds the work that has to happen every month: training cohorts, family check-ins, regional staff time, the slow steady infrastructure that retention depends on.
Foster care doesn’t run on year-end appeals. It runs on the steady support that lets a regional caseworker pick up the phone at 9pm on a Tuesday because they know their salary is funded for the year.
Monthly donors fund that.
Four ways to become a sustaining partner.
A few common tiers — or set your own. Every amount is welcome; you can adjust or cancel in Kindful any time.
This goes farther than you think. Steady monthly support that funds year-round family care, training, and regional operations.
A deeper monthly commitment — the kind of recurring revenue that lets F4F plan against reliable funding rather than year-end appeals.
A business partnership tier — for companies whose leaders want to stand with F4F month over month. Your business can appear as a recurring supporter.
Considering a different level of monthly commitment? Reach out to Brette Safadi (brette@families4families.cc) or Wayne Naugle (wayne@families4families.cc) and we’ll set it up together.
What sustaining partners get from F4F.
Beyond knowing your gift is funding the model.
An invitation to your regional Annual Gala.
Each of F4F’s regions hosts an Annual Gala — an evening at a partner church with foster family stories, an auction, and a Fund the Need. Sustaining partners are invited to their regional gala every year.
You have access to us.
If you have questions about your giving, how it’s used, or how to direct support to a specific region — you’re not bouncing through a generic inbox. You have a direct line to F4F leadership.
Tax documentation, annually.
Year-end giving summary for your records. Sent in January for the prior year.
Set it up in a couple of minutes.
Monthly giving is handled through Kindful, F4F’s donation processor. Pick a common amount or set your own, and toggle recurring billing — it’s on by default.
Adjust or cancel anytime.
We won’t pretend becoming a sustaining partner is a forever commitment. Life changes. Income changes. Priorities change. Your monthly amount can be adjusted up or down, paused, or canceled at any time through Kindful — no calls required, no awkward conversations.
We’d rather have you as a $10/month sustaining partner for ten years than a $100/month one who feels stuck for six.
The quietest, most powerful way
to fund foster care in Georgia.
The families we serve don’t need a big check once a year. They need to know support is coming, every month, reliably.
