Every Child Deserves A Family
YOU CAN LIGHT THEIR WAY HOME
We resource churches and businesses to meet the needs of orphaned and vulnerable children and families through foster care, adoption, and wrap-around support.
EQUIPPING CHURCHES. HELPING ORPHANS.
Children Are Our Responsibility
WISHING YOU COULD GET INVOLVED? WE CAN SHOW YOU HOW.
For far too long we've streamlined benevolence and outsourced caring for the vulnerable. In a country with more than 300,000 churches there's no good reason to be okay with children living without a family in the US. We are responsible for their care. Sure, their files are managed by the state. But their futures are in our hands. It's time to step back into the lives of society's forgotten children and remind them how worthy they are. Because that's what God did for us. He found us. Surrounded us. Brought us in. Called us family.
And that's what he asks of us; to do what he did.
It's time to step back in to the lives of society's forgotten children and remind them how worthy they are. Because that's what God did for us.
WE ARE THE ECHO
This can feel overwhelming at first glance. Don't worry, we've learned how to scale it down so your church can faithfully express the Gospel and influence the world around you. No one can or should do everything. But everyone can do something. We can show you how.

That's almost one for one. Your church can be the solution.
More Simple Than You Think
Going through the foster care or adoption process alone is overwhelming for parents. As a pastor, we know it's heartbreaking not having practical, actionable ways your people can wrap around these beautiful families.
We've been there. We've seen firsthand the gaps in care during our own adoptions and foster placements. And with over twenty years in church ministry, we know the struggles church leaders face when motivating people to action.
Chances are, you already have exactly what you need to support foster families, adoptive families, and families at risk. They come through your doors every weekend. They just need a plan.
We believe in you. We're here to help.
Let's Work Together
We facilitate collaboration, enabling churches and local business to meet the needs of their very own communities.
Here's the Plan
