When I started Fosters Telecom, my goal was to build something that mattered. Yes, I wanted to provide a better phone system for small businesses, but the real reason goes deeper. I wanted this business to exist for a purpose beyond just making money.
Why I Built It This Way
I have been a foster parent. I have seen with my own eyes what happens to a child who feels forgotten, shuffled from place to place, and let down by the very people who were supposed to help. But I have also seen what happens when someone steps in and truly cares: shows up, sticks with them, and takes responsibility.
That experience is what drives how I run this business.
Where the 10% Goes and Why It's Not Negotiable
The organizations we support are focused on real, practical help, things like stable housing, mentorship, education, and helping kids who are aging out of foster care. This is not just a cause on paper. These are the things that actually change lives for kids who never asked to be in this situation.
Every decision I make in this business is also about what we can do for foster kids. When you pay your monthly invoice, part of that goes directly to this work. Not just if we have a good month or hit a goal, every single month, no exceptions.
What This Actually Means for How We Serve You
This is where it ties back to your phone system. The same conviction that drives us to give is what shapes how we support you as a customer.
Too many telecom companies treat support like an expense to cut. They automate it, push you into ticket systems, and make you jump through hoops. If you have ever called a big carrier with a problem, you know what I mean. You explain your issue, get passed around, and end up managing your own support case while your phones still do not work.
That is not how foster children thrive, and it is not how customers should be treated either. What works in care, in relationships, and in business is real accountability. Someone who knows your situation, takes ownership, and sees it through.
At Fosters Telecom, when you call with a problem, you get a real person who takes ownership of your issue until it is fixed. You do not have to repeat yourself or get bounced around. We take responsibility for making it right, not just writing it down.
That is our promise to every partner, no matter how big or small your business is or what plan you are on.
A Business That's Trying to Be Worth Something
I am not sharing this just to make a sale. I believe it matters who we choose to do business with. If you become a Fosters Telecom customer, I want you to know exactly what you are part of.
We're a small team serving small businesses. We offer straightforward, reliable cloud phone service: unlimited calling, mobile and desktop apps, auto attendant, voicemail-to-email, SMS, and more advanced features like call recording and AI call analysis for teams that want them. The plans are simple and honestly priced.
But what I am most proud of is not the features. It is that we built this business to be accountable, to our customers, and to a purpose bigger than ourselves.
