Even the smallest of donations can help change a life

"FOCUS and United Through Reading partner together to keep thousands of San Diego military children connected to their service members during deployments and other duties away from home through video-recorded storytime. We are so grateful for our partnership with FOCUS since 1993 to support one of San Diego's most academically and emotionally vulnerable populations, military children!"

“FOCUS has been a very important partner to Voices for Children and the foster youth we serve. They have provided car and booster seats, back to school items including backpacks, supplies, uniforms and shoes. Our staff, board, CASAs and most importantly, our children cannot thank FOCUS enough for their generosity. We are truly grateful for you and our shopper Lorna Caster-Perez.”

“We are incredibly grateful for FOCUS’ donation of critical items of cribs, strollers, and other baby items. These items help our new and expecting moms offset monthly costs and enhance veterans economic wellbeing. We can’t thank FOCUS enough for their partnership in honoring and empowering our women veteran community.”

“Focus allows us to utilize the best tools available for teaching our children about themselves and their environment, while also helping them recognize and reach their potential.”

“FOCUS has been providing essential materials for our Therapeutic Learning Center for many years now. This has been crucial in obtaining supplies such as sensory materials that are needed to be successful in meeting children’s developmental needs and helping them with past trauma. We appreciate FOCUS’ dedication to our program so we can be dedicated teachers.”

“FOCUS has been supporting Angels Foster Family Network since 2011 with all kinds of items that are used by the infants and toddlers in our care. We are grateful for the group’s generosity as we continue to provide loving and stable homes for young children in foster care.”

“Through our Family Workshops for Separated and Divorced Families, Kids’ Turn San Diego changes family relationships in positive ways so over 400 children a year are happier. Thanks to FOCUS, we have every tool needed to be successful! FOCUS is a stand alone funding organization, as they have the personal touch of shoppers who coordinate with you to purchase the items on your grant wish list. WE have loved every shopper and are grateful for the incredible resources provided by the Friends of Children United Society in San Diego! Thank you FOCUS!”

“FOCUS has been a lifeline for Nativity Prep multiple times over the past several years. Most recently, after a year in which COVID had a negative impact on our annual fundraising, FOCUS helped supply critical academic books and laptops for the students in our care. We're extremely grateful for the support FOCUS provides the low-income, first-generation college students in our care.”
