The Guardian Foundation
The Guardian Foundation, Inc., was established in 1993 to support the work of the Guardian ad Litem Program in the 8th Judicial Circuit.
When children are removed from their parents and frequently their siblings, they are often placed in foster homes. Not only have they been removed from their families, but with scarce state resources, they also miss out on opportunities that many of us take for granted such as tutoring, summer camp, and athletics because they do not have money for equipment, and more.
As volunteer Guardians identify unmet needs of the child, the Foundation steps in by offering the financial resources to provide what is lacking for these children in order to have the same opportunities as others.
The Guardian Foundation also provides funding for important training opportunities for Volunteer Guardians through conferences, workshops, etc. so that they can better meet the needs of these vulnerable children.
Monetary donations to the Guardian Foundation can be made to help normalize children’s lives over the course of the year. Checks would be made out to The Guardian Foundation.
The Guardian Foundation, Inc., is a 501c 3 organization and accordingly gifts to the Foundation qualify as a charitable contributions deduction. Tax deductible contributions to the Guardian Foundation, Inc., can be sent to the Guardian ad Litem office at 14 S. Main Street, Gainesville FL 32601.
