4KIDS 4KIDS is committed to providing Hope, Homes, and Healing for every child and family in crisis. Learn how at: 4KIDS.us

Often we think of orphans as children who live in third world countries, those whose images we see on television or in the newspaper. But they’re not just around the globe, they’re also right here in our own backyard. On any given day in South Florida, there are three to four thousand “temporary orphans” in foster care. Imagine how children must feel when they’re removed from their homes, often with nothing more than the clothes on their back and a garbage bag filled with whatever they were able to quickly pack. These children are created in the image of God and deserve to be treated with dignity and showered with love. So whether it’s a child who is a victim of abuse or neglect, a teenager rejected by his family, or a young girl who is pregnant and alone, from the moment they come into our care, we provide support, encouragement, and direction. Our Vision:

A Home for Every Child in Crisis


Core Values:

Sacrifice:::
Serving with the heart of God,whatever the cost. Perseverance:::
Never giving up on a child. Integrity:::
In everything, above reproach. Compassion:::
Walking with children on their path to redemption. Excellence:::
Giving our best to those in need.

Last month, we hosted a Career Networking Event for the young adults we serve.

Many of the young men and women in our Transitional Independent Living and His Caring Place programs are working hard to build bright futures, and exploring career paths is such an important part of that journey!

During the evening, local businesses came out to share about what they do and the potential opportunities and career paths available to these young adults. It's so beneficial for them to learn about all the different ways to build a career and make a living!

Thank you to: ChenMed, AVI-SPL, HCA Healthcare Physician Services Group, Lash Addict & Luxury Aesthetics, Lennox National Account Services (NAS), Dade County Federal Credit Union, Ed Morse Automotive Group, Elle Kay Marketing, DeSousa Agency Video Production, and Broward Health.

In less than two weeks, we’ll gather for the South Florida Orphan’s Classic, presented by Gunther Motor Company.

Beyond the competition and camaraderie on the course, this event is about rallying together to support children and families experiencing foster care and crisis.

Thank you to Hayes Locums, our Champion Sponsor, for investing in brighter futures and making this impact possible.

A huge thank you to the students at Calvary Christian Academy Hollywood for opening their hearts to children and families served by 4KIDS. Recently, we had the opportunity to speak with three fifth-grade classes about our mission, and we were blown away by their excitement to help.

Each class has adopted a foster family to bless this Christmas, and they're taking it a step further by creating and selling 'Octopals' to raise funds for 4KIDS. We love seeing young people learn that they have the power to bring hope, joy, and encouragement to others.

Sometimes saying "yes" changes everything. 💙

When Ieda and Christopher began their foster care journey, they planned to welcome one child.

Instead, they opened their hearts to two sisters and, just days later, a newborn as well.

While the journey hasn't been without challenges, they've embraced each day with flexibility, perseverance, and unconditional love. Their story is a powerful reminder that foster care isn't about having all the answers. It's about having the courage to say yes and continuing to show up for children who need you most.

What is rescue really all about? In his latest article for Good News Media Group, our 4KIDS President, Andrew Holmes, shares how awareness, identity, and showing up for others are at the heart of bringing hope to children and families in difficult places.

Andrew Holmes discusses how Jesus' definition of "rescue" is in itself a process involving awareness, promise, identity and invitation.
