Hope Children's Home

Hope Children's Home Helping children believe again for over 55 years. We believe every child deserves the opportunity to grow up in a safe, Christ-centered home.
(314)

For over 55 years, Hope Children’s Home has been a place where hurting children find healing, hope, and a future rooted in Christ. Our mission is to rescue children who have been abandoned, abused, or neglected and provide a loving, stable environment where they can thrive spiritually, academically, and emotionally. Whether a child is with us temporarily or long-term, our goal is always to rebuild

broken lives and, when possible, restore families. Today, Hope serves children through our campuses in Florida and Honduras, with thousands of alumni now living as strong, faithful adultsβ€”many raising families of their own in the love and truth of God’s Word. We are committed to changing livesβ€”one child at a time.

Meet Mary. πŸŽ“

Mary came to Hope at just 5 years old. She had already been asked to leave her previous school, was behind academically, and carried the weight of a broken home on her small shoulders.

But Hope met her right where she was.

"Hope helped me catch back up and I learned to love learning. Hope literally gave me hope for my future by telling me that I set my own limits regardless of what others may tell me."

Today, Mary is heading into her senior year as an A/B student, a volleyball team captain, and a young woman with a clear vision for her future in nursing. She is preparing for dual enrollment classes and has already been exploring scholarships and internships.

"I have learned that I can rely on others without the fear of being let down."

That kind of transformation does not happen by accident. It happens because people choose to give. Click the link to be part of her story: https://bit.ly/3Sf9ZWj

Meet Jezael. πŸŽ“

Jezael came to Hope from New Mexico at 10 years old, stepping into a season of instability she did not choose. Her dad struggled financially, her mom had been gone since she was 2, and the one thing she wanted most was community.

"The biggest thing I struggled with at school wasn't grades but feeling welcome or having a community. I couldn't do all the things the other kids were doing like sports and extracurriculars. I just really wanted stability."

Hope gave her that and so much more.

Today, Jezael is heading into her senior year, taking dual enrollment classes through Liberty University, earning college credits before she even graduates. She is involved in volleyball, worship team, yearbook, the traveling music team, and more.πŸ“š

"I will forever be so grateful that Hope gave me such an amazing education, opportunities, and memories that I will have forever and wouldn't have had anywhere else."

We have a big announcement! 🍼

Hope Children's Home is welcoming a brand new addition to our Bundles of Hope ministry. Meet Jasper! 🀍

Jasper came to us at just 3 days old, making him the youngest baby our ministry has ever had the privilege of caring for. When the need arose, we did not hesitate, even though our Bundles cottages are still under construction. Jasper needed someone to show up for him and because of your support we were able to.

Here is how you can help:
