Nana's Children's Home, Inc. dba Nana's House

I am a long time volunteer and have seen the transformation of hearts when children feel loved and have a sense of security. I have had the privilege of seeing children walk through these doors on one of their hardest days and then bloom under the care of loving foster parents in the Nana's House community. This is a community charity with numerous businesses and individual donors that take a personal interest in the lives of children and the families who care for them.

I came to Nana's House as a volunteer because I wanted to help an organization that helps foster families help their children. They operate with a no-debt policy, which parallels my life and beliefs.

I came in to help with the chickens and landscaping in spring of 2024 and have been very impressed with their volunteer coordination and the day-to-day operations and administration. Every question I have had was met with openness and honesty. The one concern I raised was resolved to everyone's satisfaction and safety very quickly.

I am prideful of my reputation and am not hesitate recommending to friends and family to be volunteers in Nana's house.

Respectfully,

Kay Bruce

I have been actively involved with Nana's House for several years now and am always touched by their commitment to the children in their care. Nana's House provides a safe, loving, Christian home for these children. Nana's House has a strong connection to the people and businesses of this community. They have positively impacted myself and my family.

This is an amazing charity with all volunteers, helping neglected, abused, needy, and abandon children!

Ever since Kim Frodge, Director of Nana’s Children’s Home came to speak to my church about Neglected, Abused, Needy or Abandoned children I have volunteered in Nana’s House thrift shop. It’s so difficult to imagine children going through such hardship. Nana’s provides a safe loving home in a beautiful 8 home community built especially for them with only private & corporate funding, no government funding. It’s truly a blessing for the children.

My family and I have been so blessed by Nana’s house. We are blown away that they are completely volunteer based and God is at the forefront not an after thought. So many people want to do good and make an impact within our community and do not no where to start. Nana’s House is a great place to start making a difference in children’s lives!

My wife Margaret (Margie), and I have volunteered at Nana’s House in Melbourne Florida, for more than 5 years. It is always an invigorating experience and we look forward to Mondays each week when we are there. The friends we volunteer with are always helpful kind and courteous (like the boys out oath says), and it is a wonderful place to spend time. The items for sale are always “top grade”, and our customers always fun to serve! Many customers tell us it is the finest thrift store they have been to!

Nana's House provides a much-needed service to the community here in Brevard County. They provide assistance to children in our community that are vulnerable and need help the most.

I love being a volunteer at Nana's House Thrift Store. The store is always clean and very well organized. And the proceeds go to the wonderful Nana's children's home. This is a wonderful organization and I'm happy to be a part of it.

Nana's House is an incredible community meeting the needs of children requiring foster care. The children are welcomed with the warmest of hearts; provided with the clothing, food, school supplies and education needed while meeting with caring social workers to help them acclimate into their temporary homes. Many children have been adopted through Nana's House Foster Families/Parents.
It is a primary concern to keep siblings together so they can support each other through these emotional adjustments.
I have never seen anything equal to the support that Nana's House and One More Child make accessible to the foster community. We are so grateful to have an organization like this.

Nana’s House is amazing! They do so much to help children in need, and the foster parents that care for them. Such a supportive and loving ministry.

Nana's House does such a great service to our community. It is amazing the amount of work they do for children.

Great organization with an awesome mission to provide safe, loving homes for abandoned, neglected and abused children.

I knew immediately that I could support NANA'S HOUSE as a volunteer, financially and as a prayer warrior. They have helped so many families in our community.

NANA's House is a light in the darkness for so many children in our community who have been neglected or abused. The founder, staff members, volunteers, and house parents work together as a well-oiled machine to bring stability, peace, and love to these sweet children.

Nana's House fills a void in Brevard County, providing homes for children in need. It's an amazing nonprofit that maintains a stabile community for children and their foster parents!

I have been associated with Nanas House since 2009. I have worked in many capacities. Fundraising, workin at the thrift store, attending events on their behalf to explain our organization. I have witnessed the change in the children in our care. They can feel that they are safe and well cared for. I experienced the building of our gated community from a dream of the founder, to completion. This is the closest you’ll ever get to witness the amazing things that can happen in your own community when people work toward a common goal. In this case, helping children in need.

Nanas House is a true blessing to our community! So many abused and unwanted children now have a loving home, thanks to Nanas House! Awesome organization!!!

I have been involved with Nana's House as a volunteer for the past 13 years. They are a very unique organization. They provide a safe, loving home for neglected, abused, needy and abandoned children. Nana's House is 100% volunteers, with no paid staff. They rely on individuals and businesses in the community, along with their Thrift Store and fundraisers for funds needed to maintain their gated commuuunity for foster families. They deserve recognition and a Top Rating Seal of Approval from Great Non-Profits!!

What a blessing to the children (and even those adults serving NANA'S!) this ministry has been! I've known the founder(s) of NANA's House since the beginning, and to see them "take a leap of faith" by following the Holy Spirit's prompting, and remodeling the very first home for the children, I can only give the glory and praise to God for providing such a special, much needed environment for children in need of shelter, care, love, and to help them grow and mature in a loving environment they may not have ever experienced otherwise.

Now more than ever, in these difficult times we're living in, we need more ministries like theirs to help the children, so to "raise them up" in Godly ways, educated, loved on, cared for, to be prepared for adulthood. What a blessing this ministry has been, and is!

NANA’s House is an outstanding organization that supports families in our community. Children are housed in loving, caring homes with a special emphasis on God and Biblical understandings. I don’t know of any other place where children from broken families can get the attention they need through their difficult times. The organization is non-profit and all proceeds go directly to the families. My wife and I were volunteers for several years and witnessed the support and growth of this great organization. We know first hand how special NANA’s House is to our community.

Your team is the rock for so many kids . Keep up the great work

It is a real honor to volunteer at an organization that is 100% Volunteers, community funded and makes such a big impact on the lives of neglected, abused, needy, or abandon children.

Nana's House is a thrift store with all donated items and all volunteer workers that raises money to help children who are in need of safe and secure homes.

I volunteer at Nana's House. I'm proud to be a part of this christian organization that cares for neglected, abused, needy and abandoned children. Kim Frodge is selfishly devoted to providing for the children in our care. She was successful in building a gated community with everything donated, including the houses, pool, playground.

I've been associated with Nana's Children's Home for over 10 years. Each year, I am amazed at what has been accomplished, seemingly, out of nothing. Of course, nothing comes from nothing, but, what Kim believes in, comes to fruition. Her tenacity and desire to truly help children in need, her volunteers, generous donors and her love and beliefs in God and His trust in her are obvious in the homes donated as well as parents to give children what every child deserves. A childhood.

I started volunteering at Nana's House this past April. They provided me with a tour of the community and with each step I was more and more impressed. The LOVE, CARE, and COMMITMENT from Kim Frodge and her team of volunteers could be felt everywhere I turned. Although amazed by this, I became even more so when I saw how the donors and local community keep it improving. The generosity of others was focused on helping the parents in the community provide for the foster children that are entrusted to them. The children all have a safe and loving place to help them through difficult times and to experience the healthy love of Family. It is an incredible accomplishment of the community and I appreciate being a part of it.

I have volunteered for Nanas House events for the last few years. Each time is better than the last. Kim and Donna make you feel as much as family as their own.

I’m impressed by the all this non profit does to serve children and families in our community.

My husband and I are volunteers and donors for about three years now. To lend support to such a great charity that impacts the community as they do is a blessing. We love supporting Nana's House and will continue to do so.

Nana's House is a sanctuary for children. As domestic and family violence increases in our community, Nana's House lovingly accepts every child, no matter their race, age or background. Kim Frodge manages this sanctuary with excellence, and the love of Christ. Children are treated tenderly and loved deeply by the house parents the moment they arrive. We are blessed to have this ministry in our community. I would strongly encourage you to consider this nonprofit for your award. Thank you.

Great non profit! ALL volunteers!! Very rare!! Been involved since the beginning!! Can’t find a more lean charity as far as the books go and it’s great that they take care of children in need!

I have been volunteering with this organization for 14 years and I am amazed at the lives that have been changed! Together we are helping neglected, abused, needy or abandoned children! We are giving them a safe living home and hope! I absolutely feel blessed to be a part of this amazing work in the community!

I have known about the amazing work that Nana's House does for many years . I started volunteering in 2018 and I love being apart of such a great organization. The work that Kim Frodge and the entire Volunteer staff do on a daily basis is extraordinary and life changing for so many children. I look forward to continuing to support with my time and with financial contributions.

Nana's House is simply amazing! This Christ centered organization has pulled together our community doing God's work to help children in need. It has been a blessing to watch it grow over the years and open multiple homes where children will feel safe, protected, and loved!
You see my Mom had a dream, God called her to start this mission many years ago. Most would brush off a mission of this magnitude, not my Mom, she and my Dad stepped out in Faith and with God by there side they followed God's calling. Through many years of dedication, hard work, and support from the community and so many Faithful volunteers Nana's House has provided for many children! This organization will always be a blessing to our family and will continue to provide loving homes for children in need for years to come!

The experience that I have with this nonprofit organization has been great because I see and I know that everything that is being invested and given to this community is being used for the mission, to give the children that have been abused and neglected a home that is Christ-centered. I have been volunteering with Nana's Childrens Home since 2015.

I have volunteered for Nana's House for the past 7 years. It is a wonderful alternative to the foster care system. The children are in a structured home environment with a Mom and Dad and are exposed to family values.

Helping immediate families in the community that really need the help.

I have been a volunteer with Nanas Children's Home (known as Nana's House) for over 10 years now. I have watched this amazing charity grow and reach goals that seemed almost impossible. All along the way they have never wavered from their mission or broke any promises. Another amazing thing about Nana's House...we are 100% volunteers. There is no payroll. All funds raised are carefully used to ensure that there is no waste and that we are able to maintain the health and welfare of the children in our care. I have seen first hand how Nanas House has positively affected the children in our care, and their families. While we are a small ripple in the pond, what we do to help neglected, abused, needy, or abandoned children does and will continue to make a difference, a difference in the lives of the children and families we help and a difference in the community in which we live. I cannot think of a better way to spend my volunteer time and hours.

There’s more to the story than ppl know. A lot of money going out with nothing to show for it. If you guys can sleep at night is beyond me.!!!!!!!!

NANA's has been the most wonderful place to "work" as a volunteer ever! The others who volunteer enjoy their days there, not only for the benefits given to the supported children we serve, but the atmosphere is so positive, loving and caring to each other and to customers who come in to browse. Every cent earned there goes to caring for the children and keeping the houses going. I love going in to help, and look forward to being there. The purpose of NANA's is what got me to volunteer, but now that we are friends all, it has given us benefits also. It's fun to be there! We love sharing the vision and being able to help.

I have volunteered with NANA'S House for several years. I have seen first hand the awesome work that this organization does to help Neglected, Abused, Needy or Abandoned children. The most amazing thing is that ALL of the people involved in this Organization, from the Director on down to the Thrift Store volunteers are non-salaried. We are all volunteers. That means that every penny that is donated to NANA'S House goes directly to support the children. It is a faith based Organization that provides safe, loving homes to children in need.

No one loves children more than Kim Frodge, the founder of Nana’s Children's Home. She devotes her life to the cause. I love that nobody receives a salary in the organization and it’s completely run on donations. I have volunteered at the Thrift Store almost since the beginning. All the money made there is used to care for the kids in our care.

It never ceases to amaze me that Nanas House has come together completely on donations. This tells me that their vision has been pure love from the beginning !!!

A wonderful caring place for unfortunate children to be safe and have a normal childhood.

Nana's House loves children! I have only been involved with Nana's House for the past seven months, but I can see the passion that Kim and Eric Frodge have for making a safe and loving home for the children that are in their care.
The Frodge's have built a beautiful community of homes for the children with house parents that take care of them with loving care. The children are well taken care of, educated, loved and protected.
I was totally amazed and awed by the fact that the Nana's House community is supported by Melbourne and the surrounding area with the wonderful donations, time, and efforts that they give to this amazing organization.

I have known of Nanas House and the work that Kim and her group do for 3 and a half years now. In that time I have been amazed at the selfless effort of Kim and Donna and their staff to helping children in Brevard County. I am impressed not only with the leadership and volunteers but also with the house parents that I have met. An organization like this - 100% volunteer, doing work that not only will pay dividends today but also for years into the future is one that should be supported. The hope and love and guidance provided to these children will help ensure that they become successful citizens of Brevard County and contribute to the future of the area. I have provided some of my time and money to the organization because I believe so strongly in the good work that they do and would encourage all to check out their worthwhile good deeds on their website (www. http://nanaschildrenshome.com/). Theirs is a light that shines brightly. Michael Brohawn, Melbourne Beach FL

Nana's House is staffed by volunteers, receive no State funding, Kim Frodge and her Husband founders volunteer their many hours are all volunteer.
They still need funds to open remaining homes to operate to be able to house Children.

What an amazing organization. Totally created and funded by the local community and with all volunteers, this is one of the finest organizations I know of. Helping our most vulnerable children when they need us most.

As a donor to Nana's House, I have always been impressed that 100% of what we give goes directly to supporting the children. No one in the organization takes a salary, it is a 100% volunteer charity. It has been such a blessing to see the impact that our dollars make in the lives of children who need a safe, loving home.

Nana’s House is a wonderful Blessing to our community and state. Helping neglected, abused, needy or abandoned children find hope and love is what this nonprofit is all about. The 100% volunteers work tirelessly to help the precious children..who ask for nothing in return. We all receive back much much more than we ever thought possible. Our community is so very generous with all their donations that help support the Thrift Cottage. On behalf of the Nana’s House Volunteers we would appreciate your consideration and support.

I have been volunteering with this amazing Christian organization since inception! It has truly been a blessing to be a part of such a wonderful volunteer driven organization! I would highly recommend anyone interested in making some amazing connections and helping make a difference in the most precious children in our community! It warms my heart to be able to help provide a safe,loving, Christian home to the neglected, abused, needy or abandoned children in our community!

I first learned of Nana's House about 6-8 years ago. This organization provides safe loving homes for Needy, abused, neglected or abandoned children ( NANA). They have gone from one home to building a gated community that will have 8 homes housing up to 40 children. The community features a pool, community building, gardening and a playground. It is almost completely. The true beauty is that this has been accomplished all by donations! We are 100% community funded and 100% volunteer ran. Not one penny goes to payroll; it all goes to support the mission and the children!

I am a volunteer with this Great Ministry of helping Neglected, Abused,Needy,or Abandoned children. I have seen joy on the children’s faces being rescued and being taken care for that they didn’t know existed . With monetary donations it gives Nana’s House parents an opportunity to Provide these children in a loving, secure, safe home to experience Godly ways,and hope. I volunteer working at Nana’s Thrift Cottage, my husband & I helping also with donation pick-up which help provide resources for theses children.
