Christian Bale opens $22 million foster care village he helped create: 'turn their heartbreak and their pain into love and hope'
The $22 million village includes 12 furnished homes and an 11,000-square-foot community center to keep sibling groups together.
- On Friday, actor Christian Bale opened the Together California foster village in Palmdale, California, designed to keep siblings together as they enter the foster care system.
- Raising two children of his own with wife Sibi Blazic prompted Bale to confront a crisis affecting over 30,000 foster youth in Los Angeles, the highest population in the United States.
- The facility spans 11,000 square feet with 12 furnished homes and two studio apartments for transitioning youth, funded through nearly $9 million raised by the Austrian American Council West.
- Together California Executive Director Tim McCormick emphasized the facility will be 'a place that keeps families together,' while residents will begin moving in next month following the ribbon-cutting.
- Programs emphasizing stability, support and care will anchor operations as the partnership between Bale and McCormick, which began in 2022, gains backing from Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger.
