Boarder Baby Project

Border Baby Project Ltd is a non-profit organization based in Washington, DC, dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment for vulnerable and at-risk children and youth in the district. With a focus on fostering their development, the organization has been supporting these children for nearly 30 years, offering a range of services from foster care and mental health support to assisting with education, college applications, and financial aid. Led by director Carl Foster, a Vietnam War veteran, Border Baby Project Ltd is committed to breaking the cycle of multi-generational dependence on government services and empowering these children to become self-sufficient adults.

The Little Blue House (LBH), located in the heart of Washington, DC, has been the cornerstone of Border Baby Project Ltd's mission for over three decades. Founded by Carl Foster, LBH has been a refuge and a source of support for children from the same neighborhood, providing them with a safe space, access to resources like computers, and a sense of community. However, the organization faces new challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as the closure of campuses and lockdown measures have disrupted the college experiences of these students, many of whom come from households where parents work in essential service jobs. Despite these obstacles, the resilience and determination of the children continue to inspire the organization as they navigate through these unprecedented times.
