Create a Home

ASOH sends an email alert to volunteers for an Open Home Creation

Sign up to receive email alerts of when there is a space available at a Home Creation. When receiving such an alert it is best to respond right away to ensure your place and join other volunteers to Create a Home. All other Home Creations are sponsored thanks to an $8k donation by a team, whether it is a group of family and friends, colleagues, or a design team.

1 Kid To Another
For every child in a home ASOH provides much needed baby supplies, clothing, shoes, books, school supplies, toys, games, and puzzles . Please gather all the kids you know to create kits for a peer. You can find all the checklists and details here.

Stay Connected: Support ASOH Alumni

Our commitment to former foster youth doesn’t end after a home is created. Through ongoing Alumni Events, we build lasting community, offer continued resources, and create moments of joy, connection, and empowerment.

From career development workshops and wellness sessions to holiday gatherings and community meals, these events give ASOH alumni the opportunity to grow, give back, and stay supported.

Want to get involved? Volunteers are always welcome to help host, organize, or simply show up to support.

ASOH Exists Because of Volunteers Like You

The original random act of kindness was repeated over and over because good people like you kept showing up and constantly bringing new ideas and ways of expanding the impact.

At ASOH, we could always use a helping hand whether it be contributing funds, donating household items, volunteering your time or just spreading the word; we embrace all the ways in which you can help us achieve better lives for those who’ve aged out of the foster care system. Join us in making an impact and check out the volunteering opportunities below.
