Treehouse
Today, thousands of children suffering from the effects of abuse and neglect are eligible for our services. Treehouse makes a difference in their lives by helping with school, fulfilling key material needs and paying for extras that are, for most kids, just a regular part of growing up.

Our six core programs - Tutoring, Educational Advocacy, College and Career Planning, Little Wishes, Summer Camp and the Wearhouse - give foster children a real childhood as well as hope for the future.

Treehouse programs offer kids in foster care what all children so desperately need: a safe place to dream.

Since 1988, Treehouse has filled the gaps for kids in foster care, providing services that no other agency addresses: money for extra-curricular activities and summer camp, professional educational support services, resources to fully participate in the everyday activities of growing up, clothing and supplies to help them fit in at school.
