Mission: Our Statement of Values Founded on the belief that a loving God cares about the life of every individual, Boys Hope Girls Hope acts in accordance with the following values: Education is critical to reaching one''s full potential. Spirituality and an active faith-life are essential elements of healthy personal development. Children have the capacity to transcend their circumstances if given a safe environment, opportunities, and loving support. Integrity, honesty, respect, a willingness to love, and service to others are important measures of personal success. Individuals are responsible for their destinies and actions, and all children deserve the guidance, support and opportunities to choose a path to reaching their full potential. Respect for the dignity, value, unique perspectives, and talents of every individual is the foundation of positive social and emotional development, as well as strong and vibrant communities.
Programs: Our major operating programs include two residential facilities that include a maximum number of eight residents per home not including three full time residential staff and/or volunteers. The children and full care for them (including food, clothing, shelter, education, and support) are the main beneficiaries of Boys Hope Girls Hope. We also care for the residents through college graduation and prior to admission.
Boys Hope Girls Hope is a fantastic organization and this chapter is no exception. Everyone on their staff is compassionate and dedicated to the success of each child that they serve through their homes. It's no wonder their volunteers and staff continue to come back and visit long after their shifts or time working for the organization has passed.
