We find that many have a story that gives them a heart and tie to these vulnerable kids in foster care. Thank you to each of you who are looking out for the kids and the families giving them shelter and love, especially during the holidays. It takes a village and each of you makes a difference. We’ve been inspired by the givers every year, but especially this year. 💜
Doing my part to help others and to me it starts with the youth. As someone who for many years wasn’t able to have Christmas and spent holidays just eating shelter food due to being homeless as a child. I want to be able to help these kids as much as possible! Feel free to reach out if your company or you personally would like to help give to a great cause!

Entrata and the Utah Jazz brought holiday joy to over 500 kids and families impacted by foster care this week through an unforgettable evening filled with basketball, swag, food and fun! A handful of youth enjoyed a once in a lifetime courtside experience! 🤩 Truly a magical evening for so many. Thank you thank you Entrata for fostering lifetime family memories and time together! ❤️💜
This week we were able to welcome over 500 members from Utah Foster Care families to join us watch the Utah Jazz as a holiday family outing – including six winners of the Ultimate Jazz Contest who were able to watch the game from court-side seats! We are continually grateful for the great work that Utah Foster Care provides in our community to support all the amazing foster parents, siblings and kids, and wish them all happy holidays!
