The Laura Walker Foundation

Supporting those who take in Sibling Groups through Foster Care

Have you opened your home to a sibling group?  You may be eligible to apply for a financial award through the 

Laura Walker Foundation.  


Are you considering taking in a sibling group but you are facing barriers? Let us know what those barriers are. We will work with you to remove those barriers.


The Laura Walker Foundation was created to support individuals who step up to foster sibling groups, ensuring brothers and sisters are never separated during their time out of the home. 


Our goal is to increase the number of available foster homes for sibling groups. We believe brothers and sisters should never face the compounded trauma of being separated during such a difficult time. 


Contact us for information on how you may apply for an award or how you may receive assistance to remove barriers.

The Story Behind the Mission

The Laura Walker Foundation was created in honor of Laura Walker and the children whose story continues to inspire this mission.  What began in heartbreak has become a commitment to keeping sibling groups connected, supported, and cared for.

Laura Walker was taken from this earth at the young age of 33 due to domestic violence. As a result, her four children were separated from one another because no home was willing to take them all in together.


    How we help

    Financial Support for Families Caring for Sibling Groups

    The Laura Walker Foundation helps support families who open their homes to sibling groups. Financial assistance and resources may be available to foster families committed to keeping brothers and sisters together.


    Contact us to learn more or request an application.



    Essential Supplies for Foster Sibling Groups

    Many children entering foster care arrive with very few personal belongings. We provide comfort and practical support by donating essentials to sibling groups entering new homes as well as throughout their stay.


    Suggested donations include: toiletries, stuffed animals, night lights, school supplies, new clothing, coats, blankets, towels, luggage, toys, gift cards, games, brushes, and journals


    Future Family-Style Homes for Siblings

    We are working toward creating family-style foster homes, whether it's short-term or long-term, designed for sibling groups. Our vision is to offer safe, stable, and supportive places where siblings can remain together and experience comfort, continuity, and care.
