Restore Network Community-We know that you care about our kids. We know because we have had the privilege of a front row seat to your years of generosity in financial gifts, volunteer hours and the meeting of a variety of tangible needs. You are a blessing to the work we do, which ultimately means you are a blessing to countless children and families within our communities. We simply don’t exist without you. You are the Restore Network.

The children we serve are incredibly vulnerable and we have fiercely chosen to protect them over the years by guarding their identities and their stories. But we also want you to know them and to be moved by the stories of real kids in your county who need you. Over the years, we have attempted ways to allow you behind the curtain; to be confronted by the specific number and depth of needs of the children in our community. We’ve brought you statistics, we’ve asked for prayers when new kids have joined our homes, we’ve celebrated adoptions and reunifications with you, and we’ve been honest about the number of kids who need us and the limited number of homes we have available for them.

But in 2024, we decided to let you behind the curtain a bit more and our Real Kids. Right Now. Who Need Us. initiative was born.
