PROVIDING A HOME FOR EVERY CHILD IN CRISIS.
Our mission at A Door of Hope is to provide hope for kids in crisis by providing loving, Christian foster homes in Tampa Bay.
We Give Hope
Six to eight children, on average, enter foster care every day in Tampa Bay. They leave homes where they have experienced abuse, neglect, and abandonment, and they enter a new season of life in foster care. These children desperately need to know that there is a Door of Hope.
Here at A Door of Hope, we recruit, train, license, and support Christian foster homes. Our mission is to show the world, through our work, that the message of Christ is the ultimate Door of Hope.
Give
At least 80-90% of all donations go towards raising up, licensing, and caring for Christian foster families. All in all, the cost-per-home for A Door of Hope to simply license a new family is about $3,300. By giving generously, you play a vital role in helping children in crisis have a safe, loving home that is also Christ-centered and hope-driven.
Foster
Our vision, “A Home for Every Child in Crisis,” is made possible through families prayerfully stepping out in faith to provide Hope for these children! We invite you to take the first step by attending our next foster parent orientation.
Partner
Whether you are a business, organization, church, or volunteer, there are multiple ways to partner with A Door of Hope so that we can provide a home for every child in crisis within the Tampa Bay area.
The Reality…
Eight children everyday
Approximately eight children in crisis are removed from their homes every day in Tampa Bay.
Not Enough Homes
With such a shortage of foster homes in Tampa Bay, many children end up sleeping in office buildings.
TAMPA BAY CHURCHES
If one family from each church opened their home to one child in crisis, then every child would have a home.
Our Goal… 300+ Homes
You can help us raise up 300 more licensed Christian homes that will open their doors for children removed from crisis situations and placed in foster care.

A NIGHT OF HOPE
At A Door of Hope, we are committed to finding a home for every child and that vision drives everything that we do. With only about fifty percent of our annual budget met through designated funds from the state of Florida, donations and fundraising through our Night of Hope Gala make up the rest.
Join us for a special, Night of Hope Gala on Saturday, October 6th at 6pm by purchasing a table or tickets to this year’s event and filling it with individuals who might also have an interest in becoming a part of the foster care solution. Your gift will help support the unprecedented growth in our licensing of Christian foster homes.
The event includes dinner, an auction and an inspiring program highlighting local foster care families. The event is open to anyone interested in getting involved with the foster care cause.
