Arizona Friends of Foster Children Foundation (AFFCF) creates opportunities to build self-esteem and empower children and youth in foster care by funding services to enrich their life experiences and ensure their successful transition to adulthood. Since 1984, AFFCF has been changing the story of children and youth in foster care. What started out as a simple idea – that being a child should not have to hurt – has evolved into an organization that helps kids experience moments of joy (Childhood Activities), achieve self-sufficiency (Keys to Success) and get to and stay in college (Post-Secondary Programs).
