📞 When Rosa’s phone rang, everything changed…

Her daughter was facing challenges that made it impossible to care for her two young children. Without hesitation, Rosa stepped in, opening her home and her heart to her grandchildren đź’š

But raising young children again brought challenges she never expected. Between financial pressures, school schedules, medical appointments, and the emotional needs of two children navigating uncertainty, there were moments when she wondered how she could do it all alone.

That’s when Olive Crest came alongside her family.

With counseling, parenting guidance, and practical assistance, Olive Crest helped create the stability her grandchildren needed to heal and grow ✨ Little by little, bedtime worries became bedtime stories, anxious mornings turned into confident walks into school, and joy returned to their home.

Today, Rosa’s grandchildren are thriving because someone refused to give up on them 🫶

“I thought I was stepping in to save my grandchildren. What Olive Crest showed me was that they were there to save all of us.” – Rosa

Every family’s journey looks different. Sometimes strengthening a family means supporting parents through crisis. Other times, it means equipping grandparents and relatives to step into unexpected roles with confidence and hope. Because when families are strengthened, children gain the love, stability, and belonging they need to flourish.

Strong families can't thrive in isolation đź’š

Over the past year, your support has helped Olive Crest strengthen families by building meaningful connections between parents, caregivers, churches, and community resources, creating a network of care where children and families can flourish.

Swipe through to see your IMPACT over the past year, and the ways lives are being transformed through:
✨ Activating God's Family through church engagement
✨ Caregiver support and wraparound services
✨ Children and Family Resource Centers that provide essential resources, parenting support, youth programs, and connections to caring people

What began with 50 churches actively serving families in 2020 has grown to more than 500 churches in 2026, all working together to strengthen families and help prevent child abuse before crisis occurs.

Every connection, every act of support, and every caring relationship helps build a stronger future for children and families.

“When you don’t get a miracle, you can still be one.” ✨

What a powerful afternoon at Olive Crest’s Power of One Luncheon!

Together, we celebrated the impact that one person can have in the life of a child or family in crisis. From powerful stories of hope to Nick Vujicic’s inspiring message, we were reminded that real change starts when someone chooses to care.

🙏 A heartfelt thank you to our presenting sponsors, Roya Cole, Curtis and Jill Scheetz, whose generosity and leadership helped make this special event possible. Congratulations as well to Daniel Anthony of Tommy Bahama Newport Beach, our 2026 Power of One Business Honoree, for nearly 30 years of partnership helping children in our community.

Because of your support, our Power of One community raised more than $300,000 to help transform lives 🎉

The luncheon may be over, but the impact continues. Every safe home, every strengthened family, and every young person who finds hope begins with one person willing to make a difference.

Thank you for being that One đź’š

Some heroes don’t wear capes. Sometimes they’re 23-year-old dads doing everything they can to give their children a brighter future 🚀

When Tristan suddenly became the sole caregiver for his two young boys, he faced challenges he never imagined. Between providing for his family, learning how to navigate parenthood on his own, and building a stable future, there were moments when he wondered if he was enough.

With support from Olive Crest through parenting classes, life-skills coaching, financial guidance, employment support, and a caring community, Tristan discovered he didn’t have to do it alone 🫶

Today, his home is filled with family dinners, soccer games, bedtime prayers, and hope for the future. He earned a promotion, enrolled in trade certification courses, and is showing his sons every day what perseverance, responsibility, and unconditional love look like.

“What I really needed was someone to believe I could become the father my boys deserved. Thank you, Olive Crest, for believing in me.” — Tristan

Together, they are proving that your past doesn’t define your future 💚

Hope has a remarkable way of showing up when it’s needed most 💚

Sometimes it arrives through the open door of a safe home. Sometimes it’s found in the encouragement of a caring adult, the embrace of a loving family, or the simple reminder: you are not alone.

Because of your support, nearly 50,000 children and families found safety, healing, and hope through Olive Crest this year. Every number represents a real child, a real family, and a life forever changed by the compassion of people who chose to care.

Together, we’re building stronger families, strengthening communities, and creating brighter futures for children and families in crisis. Whether you open your heart, share your time, or welcome a child into your home, every act of kindness helps transform trauma into hope.

đź’š When Natalie called Olive Crest, she had reached the end of her strength.

A devoted single mother of two, Natalie had recently lost her job after taking time off to care for her youngest son following an emergency surgery. With rent overdue, bills piling up, and no family nearby to help, she feared she might lose not only her home, but also her children.

But one difficult season did not have to become a life-altering crisis.

Through Olive Crest's prevention services, a trained host family welcomed 8-year-old Noah and 4-year-old Emma into their home for a short time. While the children enjoyed bedtime stories, family dinners, and afternoons at the park, Natalie was able to focus on finding employment, stabilizing her finances, and rebuilding her future.

With practical resources, encouragement, and support every step of the way, Natalie found her footing again.

Just weeks later, she was back to work, caught up on rent, and ready to welcome her children home.

Today, their family is together, stronger than before, and moving forward with renewed confidence.

✨Prevention changes everything. By providing support before challenges become crises, Olive Crest helps children remain where they belong: with the people who love them most.

💚 One year ago, Olive Crest launched PROMiSE® with a vision: that every child affected by sexual exploitation deserves more than rescue. They deserve safety, healing, and the opportunity to build a brighter future.

👉 PROMiSE® is the Prevention and Restoration Of Minors impacted by Sexual Exploitation.

A Year of Impact:
• 8,517 visits to local drop-in centers
• 1,398 youth served through drop-in center support
• 78 youth provided with safe housing

Over the past year, PROMiSE® has expanded through drop-in centers, rapid response teams, safe housing, and dedicated community partnerships, creating pathways to restoration for youth in crisis ✨

Behind every number is a child who found safety, support, and hope. Together, we’re ensuring exploitation does not define a child’s story.
