Give the gift of family
Foreverfamily would not be where we are without the loyal support of individuals, foundations, corporations, and government agencies. Your gift helps keep families together — no matter the distance.
Our single biggest need is unrestricted support. When you allow us to apply your gift where it’s most needed, we ensure it derives its best possible return.

WISH LIST
We are often asked if we have a wish list — and yes, we do! Below are our organization’s ongoing needs. We thank you for helping us ensure that every child gets what they deserve: our very best and lots of love.
Gas Gift Cards
Increments of $25 or $50 preferred. These help transport families and children to and from prison visits — often long distances.
Grocery & General Gift Cards
Visa, Kroger, Walmart or similar cards help with day-to-day expenses: healthy snacks, activity materials, tennis shoes, swimwear, and unforeseen family needs.
Tablets & Laptops
New devices preferred, but lightly used devices in good working order are gratefully accepted. If you wouldn’t give it to your own child, please don’t gift it to ours.

Transportation
Family Visitation Program
01
We provide free transportation every month so children can visit their incarcerated parents. For many families, we are the only way they get to see each other. Help by covering a roundtrip Uber or Lyft, a gas card, or breakfast and lunch for these long trips.
EDUCATION
Ruth & Ed Dressel Scholarship
02
Established by Paula Dressel, Foreverfamily’s first Board President, in memory of her parents. This fund provides scholarship money for young adults in our program graduating high school and heading to college. Your contribution opens doors.
LONG-TERM STABILITY
Foreverfamily Endowment
03
Managed by the Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta. We are working to grow this endowment to ensure Foreverfamily’s mission continues for generations. For large contributions, we can offer tax planning counsel — please call us to learn more.
