We are so excited to announce The Schuylar House.
We are thrilled to announce an exciting partnership with Fostering Champions, which will bring a new home to West Virginia in 2025. This home will serve as a safe and nurturing environment for four teenage girls transitioning from the foster system to independent living.
Our mission at The Schuylar Barnes Foundation is to provide support and resources to those in need, and this initiative is a vital step in creating a brighter future for these young women. We believe every girl deserves a chance to thrive, and with your support, we can make that happen.
But this is just the beginning! We are hopeful that The Schuylar House will be the first of many homes built in West Virginia. Our vision also includes plans for homes dedicated to teenage boys, ensuring that we address the needs of all young individuals in the foster system.
Joining forces with Fostering Champions allows us to combine our efforts and expertise, ensuring that we provide not just a house, but a home filled with love, guidance, and hope. Together, we are blessed to support these children on their journey to independence.
We invite you to be part of this transformative project. Your support can make a real difference in the lives of these young individuals. Let’s work together to empower our future leaders and create lasting change in our communities.
