The KIDS HOPE USA Way

KIDS HOPE USA builds caring relationships . . . one child, one hour, one church, one school.

Our Mission:

KIDS HOPE USA builds caring relationships . . . one child, one hour, one church, one school.

Our Belief:

We believe in Jesus’ way.

Our Values:

• Children: because every child matters.
• Relationship: because love is only possible person to person.
• Faithfulness: because if I say I will, I will.
• Prayer: because it is our language of hope.

Why is KIDS HOPE USA Needed?

• Many U.S. children are at-risk.
• Churches want to reach and love these children but they don’t know how.
• Principals and teachers, parents and students are asking for it.

What is KIDS HOPE USA?

KIDS HOPE USA churches give hope to children in public elementary schools through a relationship with a caring church member.

Helping to meet the emotional, social and academic needs of at-risk children by giving them a one-to-one relationship with a mentor from our church.
Owned by our church. This is our ministry to children and families in our neighborhood.
Prayer is the foundation of our work. A behind-the-scenes prayer partner from our church prays for each mentor-child relationship.
Elementary school children are our focus. They need mentoring most because they are at that critical time when values are formed, self-esteem is developed and critical academic skills must be acquired.

Why does KIDS HOPE USA work?

• Lives are changed.
• Proven model: one child, one hour, one church, one school.
