Life after foster care starts here!
adoption. independent living. advocacy.
Selfless Love Foundation offers a second chance at life for children in foster care. Through our work in adoption, independent living, and advocacy, lives are changed – forever!
Changing their lives starts with you. You can open the door to a new life for children and youth impacted by foster care.
Before 2024 closes, please provide a gift to help children in foster care and youth who age out of the system start their new lives in the new year.
More than 100,000 children in foster care in the United States are waiting to be adopted. Each year, nearly 20,000 youth age out of foster care without a stable, permanent connection.
You can help!
Selfless Love Foundation connects children in foster care with forever families, provides housing and training for youth aging out of the system, and advocates to improve the policies that affect them all.
A new life for a child in foster care starts with you!

Dale Carnegie Leadership Training
“Participating in Dale Carnegie Leadership Training is providing me with tools I’ll use for a lifetime!”
“We realized YOU were the missing piece of our puzzle.”
Brown’s Harbor
If I want to be successful, I must first believe in myself, I know that I am capable of anything, and live out these beliefs every day. The leadership trainings have taught me that if I don’t believe in myself first, nobody else will.
We were ready to give up on our dream...
when we were asked if we would be interested in meeting twin boys. The rest is history.
Dale Carnegie Training
Dale Carnegie Training taught me how to communicate in my personal and professional life.
Workshop with Elysze Held
She taught us how to dress appropriately for job interviews, and how to have fun with our own personal style. It helped me prepare for job interviews and dressing for success!
Brown’s Harbor
When I was 17, I was left homeless for two months and still in high school. Then I found Brown’s Harbor and my life changed forever.
We were waiting, but not just waiting for “any child”, we were waiting for “our” child
We were waiting for the child that was supposed to come to our family. All 3 of our children are exactly where they’re supposed to be.
Our children were in foster care for over 1,000 days.
Adoption transformed their lives, and ours. We are truly a family because of Selfless Love Foundation.

Donate your highly appreciated stocks
INCREASE YOUR IMPACT TO SELFLESS LOVE FOUNDATION, AND YOUR TAX DEDUCTION, WITH A DONATION OF HIGHLY APPRECIATED SECURITIES.
If you own highly appreciated stock and would like to join Selfless Love Foundation in transforming the lives of current and former foster youth, consider donating stock. Not only is it a powerful charitable contribution that will help impact the lives of foster youth for generations to come, but it also is a smart tax planning move.
By donating appreciated stock held for more than one year directly to Selfless Love, you eliminate the capital gains tax you would incur if you sold the assets and donated the after-tax proceeds, which could increase your amount available for charity by up to 20 percent. You can claim a fair market value charitable deduction for the 2022 tax year and choose to pass on that savings in the form of more giving.
Please consult with your financial, legal, or tax advisor prior to making any gifts.
Donating Highly Appreciated Securities is simple!
- Instruct your brokerage firm to transfer the desired number of shares/name of securities to Selfless Love Foundation
