Helping churches serve vulnerable kids and families.

We create frameworks & customized training for local faith-based organizations.

Every child deserves to belong to a family they can call their own.

Here are a few other churches and non-profits that have helped kids find their forever family.

Through community-focused frameworks and localized team training, you'll be equipped to find loving families for kids who desperately need them.

Families Are Resourced

You will have all the resources you'll need to provide deliberate and graceful support to all families that dedicate their lives to help vulnerable kids.

Kids and Families Are Restored

You will see kids begin to experience the love they deserve and live out God’s purpose for their life because they are part of a loving, caring, and supportive family.

Helping vulnerable kids find their forever family can take shape in many ways. We will do all the heavy lifting so you can just choose what you want to do the most.

3. Follow The Story

  • It is an honor for our church to partner with hope fort worth. They have deepened our awareness and equipped us to be the church to children who are in challenging circumstances. The blessing we have received will last for eternity.

    Senior Pastor, Lakeside Baptist Church

  • Hope local has a huge heart to bring awareness to the needs of orphaned and vulnerable children in our community. They have helped to provide direction to our church, my family, and our community in regard to fostering and adoption.

    James Marcum

    Sr. Director of Get Going, StoneWater Church

  • Over the last two years we have seen our people become educated and trained about how they can minister to foster and adoptive families. We have also advocated for two teenagers who gained their forever families. This is an amazing organization!

    Senior Pastor, Graceview Baptist Church

Everyone deserves a chance to receive unconditional love and a family they can call their own.

When kids who are in the foster system cannot find their “forever” family, they often times continue to view their life through the lens of rejection making it difficult for them to be emotionally healthy. To make matters worse, if we let time go by, those same kids will age out of that system leaving them to face the world without the basic skills we take for granted.

 FAQs

  • That's okay. It can seem like a lot, but we've created ways you can dive in while you continue to learn. All you need to do is schedule a meeting and we'll take it from there! Quick Tip: The best way to jump in right away is through scheduled donations.

  • You're right! There are so many amazing causes out there. Our focus is just a bit different. Keeping kids from aging out of foster care not only changes the lives of the kids adopted, but also reduces homelessness, imprisonment, drug addiction, and human trafficking. It’s a clear way to make a large and lasting positive change in our world.

  • Money can be a sensitive subject to some, but not to us. Third parties review our books monthly to ensure donations are used efficiently and always go directly to helping kids that need it.

  • With the support and resources you'll receive, your church can get started with very little effort. You can even receive direct team training and support to equip your volunteers.
