PROVIDING A HOME FOR EVERY CHILD IN CRISIS

Our vision is to provide hope for kids in crisis by providing loving, Christian foster homes in west-central Florida.

We Give Hope

Every day in our community, children are removed from their homes, because it's not safe for them to stay there. Most enter the foster care system. It's a reality that we can't ignore. We want to show each of these children that there is a Door of Hope.

You are invited to take part in the 5th Annual A Door of Hope Golf Classic on Monday, March 17, 2025, at Carrollwood Country Club in Tampa. The tournament is a four-person scramble with many contests and prizes, including a $1 Million Shootout and several other hole-in-one contests.

By participating as a player and/or sponsor, you are helping to change the lives of children in crisis in Tampa Bay who have been removed from their homes due to abuse, neglect, or abandonment. You will be helping to place these kids into a loving, safe Christian foster home. 

OUR CORE SERVICES

RECRUIT: We constantly seek out and screen potential new Christian foster families.

TRAIN: Starting with info sessions through parenting classes, we prepare each family to foster.

LICENSE: From home visits to extensive paperwork, we license each foster home.

SUPPORT: This is our heartbeat. We personally care for and pray with each family.

Here at A Door of Hope, our mission is to show the world, through our work, that the message of Christ is the ultimate Door of Hope.

THE REALITY

EVERY DAY, CHILDREN ARE REMOVED

from their homes in West Central Florida.

NOT ENOUGH HOMES

There is a shortage of foster homes in our region of Florida, many children need a permanent foster home.

IT TAKES THE CHURCH

If 1 family from each church opened their home to 1 foster child, then every child would have a home.

Our Goal for the Next 5 Years

TOTAL NUMBER OF LICENSED FOSTER HOMES SINCE 2011

1,000 (+ 531)

TOTAL NUMBER OF FOSTER CHILDREN PLACED SINCE 2011

7,000 (+4,639)

The Need
