Overnight Essentials For Displaced Children
-
Every day children are placed in the foster care system for things out of their control. Agencies are faced with the difficult task of protecting children, often with nothing to help these children feel at ease through this transition. Adventure Bags are a way for each child to have important items they can keep with them throughout their transition and the future. Each backpack contains essential items like a blanket, stuffed animal, toothbrush and toothpaste, a hairbrush or comb, sock, and pajamas or clothes.

From Homeless To Hopeful
-
Home of Hope at Gwinnett Children's Shelter is a transitional living facility based in Buford, Georgia, that focuses on ending the cycle of homelessness for children and their mothers. Unlike a traditional emergency shelter, they provide a long-term (typically 3–12 months) "Next Step" program that emphasizes independence through high accountability and customized "Life Plans." Their services include rent-free housing, life skills training (such as budgeting and career building), an on-site childcare program, and counseling. By supporting both the educational needs of the children and the career goals of the mothers, the ministry aims to transition families from homelessness to stable, independent living.

Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:18-20
