In Celebration of the Life and Legacy of Jerry Yingling
Every Child Deserves Dignity.
You Can Help Provide It.
Right now, tens of thousands of children are entering foster care - many with nothing but a trash bag to carry their belongings.
At Comfort Cases, we believe no child should feel forgotten. Yet for older children - especially those ages 11 and up - being seen, chosen, or supported becomes even more difficult. These youth face the greatest barriers to adoption and often move from home to home with no sense of stability.
Your gift today, in honor of Jerry, helps ensure that older children in foster care feel valued during one of the most vulnerable times in their lives. Each Comfort Case® is a backpack filled with essentials: cozy pajamas, hygiene products, a warm blanket, a book, and a stuffed animal. But to a child, it’s more than a bag. It’s a message of dignity, hope, and belonging.
It costs approximately $55 to provide one Comfort Case. Please give what you can. Every dollar makes a difference - and every child deserves to be reminded: You matter.
