This idea became her lifelong mission and has grown to over 5,500 members, in 45 cities and has helped thousands of children. Since our founding, volunteers have been driven by faith, love and

a desire to make a difference. Guided by National’s Challenging Poverty Initiative, we create localized programs or partner with others to build better communities. Today, Nationwide, over 5,500 members from 45 chapters volunteer nearly 400,000 hours and serve more than 75,000 children and their families annually.
