Every Child Deserves A Bright Future

We believe every child in foster and adoptive care deserves the chance to thrive. Through connection, tools, and support, we guide youth toward hope and opportunity.

 

Whether mentoring, volunteering, or donating, you can ensure these children have the resources and relationships they need to succeed. 

The Challenges These Kids Face Often Go Unseen

Why Do We Do What We Do? It’s Simple:

Every Child Should Know They Are Important, Valued, and Loved

“I know for my boys the biggest thing was not feeling like they were the only ones that had been through this, they always felt like they were alone in their journey. Waymark allowed them to understand and see that they aren't broken and the only ones that have been through hard things. They can survive and thrive and now it's helping build and strengthen their relationship with Jesus so it's been such a blessing for us”
