Holiday Inn Express and Foster Angels on Earth –

For the month of September 2022, the management team and staff members at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Ft. Washington have committed to collecting donation items on behalf of Foster Angels on Earth, Inc., a non-profit organization whose mission is to improve the lives of foster children.

Sadly enough, when a child is placed in the foster care system, it is usually without warning and preparation time for the foster family. The majority of the time, the child arrives with only the clothes that they are wearing. Foster Angels on Earth provides a bag with a 3 day supply of clothes, shoes, toiletries and additional items based on the age of the child.

For this reason, we came together and collect new Items Only. Monetary donations. And in addition we were able to gather 21 backpacks!!! Big shout out to Angelina, Francesca and Isabella!
