Hearts for Kids
The Children Matter Too
Kids shouldn’t carry adult-sized worries. Hearts for Kids gives the children of our single moms what every child deserves: a safe place to belong, a steady mentor, counseling when it’s needed, and access to things like after-school activities and summer camps that ignite their gifts and grow their faith. Your generosity turns crisis into confidence, keeping kids connected, learning, and thriving while their moms build towards a stable future.
"Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it". - Proverbs 22:6
NO Kid Left Behind!
Our Hearts for Kids Initiative is modeled after the movie The Forge, with one mission: to ensure EVERY child is mentored, guided, and given the opportunity to discover and grow in their God-given gifts.
Through after-school activities, counseling, tutoring, and mentorship, we SOW into each child's life so they can GROW and one day reap a HARVEST as leaders of their generation.

Kids Are In Need Too
Research shows that children from single-parent homes face greater risks: they're twice as likely to drop out of school and more than twice as likely to display behavioral issues compared to those with two parents (National Center for Education Statistics).

Bridging The Gap
One of the most critical needs is the presence of a positive male role model, something many of our children lack. Studies reveal that boys without a father figure are more likely to struggle academically, emotionally, and socially, while those with mentors or male role models are far more likely to thrive. Through Hearts for Kids, we're standing in that gap. Providing mentorship, structure, and spiritual guidance so every child can rise above their circumstances.
This is how we break cycles and build legacies - one child at a time!
Say YES to Childhood
It's often the 'yesses' that help build a childhood. Yes! you can join the team. Yes! you can read the next book in the series. Yes! I can help you with your math homework.
Right now, a child is waiting on a simple yes: the sign-up fee, a ride to practice, a mentor to speak to when things feel hard. Your gift to Hearts for Kids helps turn barriers and roadblocks into green lights and bridges: activities paid, transport arranged, consistent guidance and mentoring in place. It’s the difference between a child sitting out and you stepping in.
Your Gift Can:
Cover a season’s fees, uniforms, or instruments.
Provide counseling when a child is bullied or needs to heal from past trauma.
Give opportunities for the children to enrol in jujitsu or other sports activities which often are unaffordable.
Open doors to camps, clubs, coaching and more.
Help a child discover, cultivate and grow in their God-given gifts and talents!
Be the YES that helps define a childhood, say yes today!
"And anyone who welcomes a little child like this on my behalf is welcoming me". - Matthew 18:5
