The Faine House Providing a stable home + education & emotional support for teens aging out of foster care.

With 602 known homeless youth in Orange, Seminole, and Osceola counties in 2019, the need for a safe place to receive mentorship is indisputable. Faine House staff and volunteers offer guided support on education and occupational opportunities, safe housing, food, transportation, financial literacy, and healthy, sustainable living. In the first decade of services, dozens of Central Florida young adults have opened their first bank account, earned a driver’s license, become employed, attended technical school, or gained a college degree. The Faine House is now widely recognized as a leader in Central Florida’s network of organizations seeking to end homelessness for young adults. Founded in conjunction with the Children's Home Society of Florida, The Faine House now operates as an independent 501c3.

The very first RISE Breakfast was a great start to the week and a wonderful way to build community! Dedicated table leaders brought together guests to share the heart of The Faine House and the mission of the RISE Program.

We loved seeing so many new and familiar faces coming together, and every person left with an opportunity to stay connected whether by becoming a mentor, serving as a RISE Program meeting speaker, or supporting our mission in other meaningful ways.

We were honored to have board member Karla Ray emcee the program, Jeff Faine, Board Chair and Co-Founder, share the history and his personal connection to The Faine House, and Ray Gaines, our Executive Director, present the RISE Program.

A special thank you to residents Ray and Tay for speaking so comfortably and confidently in front of our guests their poise and inspiring growth stories are a powerful testament to the life-changing impact of our work and mentorship.

The housing crisis facing young adults doesn't always look like what people expect. It rarely looks like a headline about eviction court. More often, it looks like sleeping on a different couch each week or sharing a crowded room with near-strangers.

Our newest article looks at what that instability actually looks like day to day.

RISE programming includes life skills sessions most people never think to teach: budgeting, meal planning, even how to navigate a lease application. Small, practical skills residents will use for the rest of their lives.

Earlier this year, the Mini Masters tournament brought Central Florida golfers together for an afternoon of friendly competition, thanks to our friends at Just Call Moe. The event raised more than $10,000 for The Faine House.

Support like this makes our RISE programming and day-to-day operations possible.

The 2026 "Heart of a Highlander" event is a day of service for students and family of Lake Highland Preparatory School. Each year, these generous families spend time at The Faine House making it even more welcoming for our amazing residents. We truly couldn't be more grateful for LHP's ongoing partnership with us and their commitment to service. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Our RISE programming centers around life skills and the real tools our residents need to navigate work, relationships, stress, communication, and daily responsibilities. Those of us who grew up in stable homes with adults guiding us know how impactful those years were on our ability to become functional, successful adults. Our residents deserve the same chance, and with your help, they're getting it: thefainehouse.org |
