"It's not how much we do...
but how much love we put into doing it!"
We believe in children--in their promise and in their future. For nearly 100 years, our mission has been to provide effective solutions to build and support healthy families for Florida's children.
Every day, CHS works to develop, restore and strengthen families. We help loving people become parents through our adoption and foster care programs. We enable families to stay together through our child abuse prevention programs.

Ark of Hope For Children, Inc.
The Ark of Hope For Children, Inc. will provide stable homes for children who have fallen prey to physical abuse, sexual abuse and severe neglect. We will meet every child's needs in a caring, loving and nurturing manner. Our goal is to meet the many special needs of these children by being Christ-like "lighthouses" to them; guiding them out of the bondage of past abuse, and into lives of faith, hope and love

Make A Child Smile Organization
To provide emotional and financial support to families whose children suffer from chronic or life-threatening illnesses and also give those who visit the MACS site the opportunity to participate by sending mail to the children.
Featured children are not the only ones who benefit from the mail. It touches the whole family! Even the children's young siblings end up receiving their own mail!
Some kids are too young to really understand where the cards and gifts are coming from, but it makes their parents happy to know that strangers they never met, care about their child and are sending their love and support.

The Children's Dream Fund was founded in 1981 with the single purpose of fulfilling dreams for children ages 3-18 who have been diagnosed with a life-threatening illness.
Referrals are received from seven hospitals on Florida's west coast. Dreams vary greatly - from trips to Disney World, meetings with celebrities, gifts such as computers and swimming pools and occasional shopping sprees. Every child deserves hope and a dream!
The true impact of a child's dream cannot be measured in dollars and cents. Our desire is to grant every eligible childs dream. There are many children in our community with life-threatening illnesses, and the Children's Dream Fund needs your help to reach them.
