Gabilan Enrichment Fund

Grants for Foster and Adoptive Families

 The Gabilan Enrichment Fund is available to provide supplemental funding to our foster and adoptive families for a variety of needs that may not fit in their budget. Examples of some of the funding: helped send a teen to youth camp, purchased Disneyland gift cards for a family taking four foster siblings to Disneyland, desk and supplies for online school, YMCA after school program, karate lessons, swim lessons, and preschool funding. Medical and dental expenses are not included in the Gabilan Enrichment Fund grants; however, replacement glasses will be considered. The funding is provided through donations from a caring community and provide assistance that may not otherwise be available.
