Mission: Fostering homeless young adults through community and connections to live a life of hope and purpose.
It is Faith and Fostering’s goal to serve homeless young adults ages 18-24 by wrapping Christ-centered, community volunteers around them to provide support and to assist in finding resources with the goal of independence in 21-24 months. This organization is unique in the fact that it offers more than just serving. Volunteers partner with young adults to offer guidance while they work to reach their fullest potential, and then celebrate as they not only survive but thrive.
Every moment is a fresh beginning.
– T.S Eliot
