WHO WE ARE

Show Hope is a movement to care for orphans.

We work to restore the hope of a family to orphans in distress by breaking down barriers between waiting children and loving families.

This movement began in 2003, when Mary Beth and Steven Curtis Chapman founded Show Hope after having their own eyes and hearts opened to the global orphan crisis. Since then, Show Hope has worked to holistically approach orphan care, helping children in four key areas:

Through Adoption Aid grants, Show Hope has helped more than 5,000 children from more than 50 countries, including the U.S., come to know the love of a family. More than 2,000 waiting children with acute medical and special needs have received loving care through Show Hope’s Care Centers in China. Show Hope’s partnership with the TCU Institute of Child Development and Empowered To Connect has helped bring hope and healing to children around the world with encouraging, research based teaching in Pre+Post Adoption Support. And Show Hope prepares for the future with our Student Initiatives by educating and empowering the next generation of leaders to effectively care and make a difference in the lives of children who are orphaned.

You can join the movement to care for orphans!
