Hope Houses

 

CLICK HERE FOR SPONSORSHIP INFORMATION 


Fostering Hope owns and supports homes in West Central Florida. Our Board of Directors interviews, screens and recruits foster parents to live in our homes, and we hire staff for each of our houses to help these foster parents. This system adds an extra layer of protection for the children placed in our homes. We work closely with the lead agencies in the locations we serve. Currently, we serve Pinellas, Pasco and Hernando counties.
Can you help support a foster child?

The benefits of this type of out-of-home setting include:
Р Oversight & accountability intrinsic to program design
Ð  Improves foster parent retention through added support & incentives
Ð  On-site population specific services for at-risk children
Ð  Increases community awareness, involvement, & financial support
Р Increased opportunities to place sibling groups together

 

Everything happens for a reason...

I think that all the stuff I have been through was so I can help kids just like me.  I am 18 years old and have been in more foster homes than I can count.  Going from home to home was the hardest thing about being in foster care.  Not only did I lose stuff I can never get back, but I lost myself.  I became numb to everything.  I didn’t care about myself or anyone else.  I never got close to anyone because I knew I was going to leave.  I don’t want other kids to go through what I did.  I want to help them find a safe place that they can call home....
