1HOPE for Kids

A nonprofit organization

Help 1HOPE Foster Kids Thrive Next Summer! 🌟

Imagine an 8-year-old foster kid who's never been to summer camp. A teenager who dreams of learning to ride horses. A child in the system who just wants to swim, play, and laugh like any other kid their age. Help us make that happen for our foster kids at 1HOPE.


Our Big Give Goal: $40,000


This year, we're raising funds for $500 summer camp scholarships—giving our foster children the chance to enjoy and experience their childhood through the summer activity or program of their choice.


Why Summer Camps Matter:

  • Helps children heal from trauma
  • Builds confidence and new friendships
  • Experiencing "normal" childhood moments
  • Discovering new talents and passions
  • Creating memories that last a lifetime

Who We Are

We have an orphan crisis in our country. Here in South Texas, the situation is the same. In response to this crisis, 1HOPE for Kids was formed with the simple goal of doing everything possible to serve the needs of orphans and the families that serve them. While serving as foster parents, learning to meet the needs of the children in our homes, the founders of 1HOPE for Kids became acutely aware of the immense crisis children in our region are facing.

We are a top-to-bottom Christian foster agency in Region 8 whose founding board is comprised of veteran foster families, church leaders and industry experts.


We are the only agency who trains families from an excellent, trauma-informed care model, coupled with veteran foster parent practical skills. Kids find stability in 1HOPE foster homes, with an average of 0-1 moves (compared to state averages of 2-6 moves); therefore, healing begins faster and progresses more quickly. We offer our families 24/7 support and surround them with a Care Community. Our vision is to have a home for every child, and our mission is providing hope for kids in Crisis.

We thank you for donations and support!
