Together, we can create a brighter future for children in foster care.
Our mission is to bring comfort, dignity, and hope to children in foster care across New Jersey. We support youth during times of uncertainty by providing essential items, emotional encouragement, and community-driven resources. Through collaboration with volunteers, donors, and partners, we strive to remind every child that they are seen, valued, and deeply loved.
Your generous donation will enable us to meet our goals and help fund our mission.
We Are Loved is a 501C3.
Tax ID 84-2551194
We offer holistic support to foster families by providing them with a safe space to share their experiences, gain coping skills, and learn from each other.
We empower Foster Youth through educational and motivational workshops to unlock their unique potential and equip them with essential life skills for a successful future.
We aim to bring comfort and happiness throughout the year with initiatives designed to meet their needs and create lasting memories, ensuring that every child knows they are valued and cared for.
Our volunteers are able to have a positive impact on these foster children's lives by contributing to the mission at We Are Loved. Whether you are only able to volunteer for a one-time event or for multiple days a week, we greatly appreciate your help!
Volunteer opportunities are available for adult and junior volunteers.

Our Comfort Bags are given to local Police Departments to help officers support children during crisis situations. Each bag is thoughtfully packed with age-appropriate items that offer distraction, relief, and a sense of care. Your support helps bridge the gap between first responders and vulnerable youth.
Donate today and help bring calm, comfort, and compassion into difficult moments.
Our Holiday Boxes aim to bridge the gap between past traditions and new beginnings for children in foster care. By providing them with essential items and facilitating the creation of new memories, we hope to instill a sense of belonging and joy during the holiday season.
Join us in helping to make this holiday season a little brighter for a child in care.

We're excited to launch our brand-new We Are Loved sweatshirts! Every purchase helps fund programs that support to youth across New Jersey.
Rooted in Love, Growing in Hope. Our new tree logo represents the heart of We Are Loved: strength, growth, and unconditional love. The roots reflect the grounding support we strive to give every child, while the branches and hearts symbolize how love grows and multiplies through connection, community, and care. At the center is a message we believe every child deserves to hear — We Are loved.
Special thanks to Cherry Willow for partnering with us to bring this exclusive sweatshirt to life. Your support helps us spread warmth — in every sense of the word.

"We Are Loved" by Kenny Simmons & Phoenix Atlantic Entertainment
We are proud to share the powerful We Are Loved song, written, produced, and performed by our longtime volunteer and foster parent, Kenny Simmons. This heartfelt song and music video captures the essence of our mission—fostering hope, resilience, and a deep sense of belonging for children in foster care.
Through every lyric and note, this song reminds us of the transformative power of compassion and community. Join us in celebrating this special tribute, and feel the impact of our mission in a whole new way. Watch, listen, and share to help spread our message of love and support.
Kenny's journey as a musician began in New York City and soared when he joined The Commodores as a vocalist and percussionist. Through his extensive career, he’s performed with industry legends and toured globally with The Fabulous Infernos, America’s #1 Show Band. As a devoted foster parent, Kenny has been deeply involved with We Are Loved from its inception, alongside his family.
Reflecting on his experience, Kenny shared,
"We have never met anyone with such a tremendously infectious personality as Mrs. Phyllis DiNardi. From the concept of her granddaughter’s drawing of two hands forming a heart to the beautiful gifts, gracious hospitality, knowledgeable workshops, and outstanding events, this foundation has been a lifeline for our family. Mrs. DiNardi, the staff, and volunteers are a true blessing to resource parents and children in care. 'We Are Loved' should be held high as a symbol of what people can do when leading with kindness, love, and their hearts.”
