01 / Shelter
Safe walls. Warm beds.
A home environment where every child is fed, clothed, and protected from the dangers they were left in.
Henderson · Nevada501(c)(3) Foundation
No child should be left on the side of the road.
Every year, thousands of children are abandoned — not just emotionally, but physically. We are building a home where the abandoned find food, shelter, education, healthcare, and the one thing they have been denied: someone who stays.
A note from our founder
“Every child deserves a safe place to grow, to dream, and to be loved.”

About us
A home,
not a holding place.
We are a nonprofit charity foundation dedicated to providing care, stability, and hope for orphaned and vulnerable children. With a focus on holistic development, we offer a safe home environment, access to quality education, healthcare, nutritious meals, and emotional support.
Our mission is rooted in compassion and driven by the belief that every child deserves love, dignity, and the opportunity to thrive. Through the support of our community and partners, we strive to break the cycle of poverty and abandonment — empowering children to build meaningful and independent futures.

The voice behind the name
A name carried by a lifetime of advocacy.
Our foundation carries the name of an artist whose career has long been entwined with children’s causes — from family hospitals to disaster relief to organizations that protect young lives. We carry that legacy forward in our own community, here in Nevada.
Every meal served, every bed made, every child safely sheltered honors that promise: that no child is forgotten, and no voice is too small to be heard.

03 / Healing
Counsel for what they carry.
Trauma-informed counseling, healthcare, and emotional support so children can heal — not just survive.

Why people give
Hope is a community.
We started giving because we were tired of seeing the same news stories and feeling nothing. Sponsoring a child here gave us a name to pray for and a face to fight for.
