The Children of Angel's House Enjoy Warm, 
Family Atmosphere

Angel's House opened it's door to children on June 21, 2004.  Currently licensed to accommodate a maximum of ten children, there have been from 6 to 10 children who have been residents since it opened. Some only stay temporarily and are later placed with relatives, but an average of seven children live at Angel's House on a daily basis.  Over 70 children have sought safe haven in our facility since it opened its doors ....

Thanks to our loyal corporate and community supporters, Angel's House has provided over 7000 days and nights of care to children that needed a safe place to reside ....

Angel's House runs just like a home with the group leaders acting as house parents. It is heartwarming to go there and smell the meals being prepared and watch as the children play the X-Box, do homework or watch television.         

The children's ages range from seven to fifteen. All are good kids who seem to respect the rules and genuinely enjoy the relaxed family atmosphere that surrounds them. They seem to enjoy living at Angel's House even though they are not at home with their parents.

We continue to need money. It is estimated that we will have to raise between $60,000 to $100,000 dollars each year just to meet expenses.
Volunteer groups are being organized to help take care of the needs that seem always to be arising. A campaign
is underway to enlist one hundred people to commit to a donation of $1,000 per year and we are continuing to ask for major corporations and foundations to give monetary assistance.

Any amount of cash donations are always appreciated.  Donations may be made in honor or memory of a loved one.  

Other ways you can help...
It is a sad but true fact that children come
to Angel's House with only the clothes on their backs.  VISA gift cards or gift cards from Target, Walmart or other department stores are always appreciated as this enables the children to purchase their own personal items and clothing.

Please know that we are very grateful for your generous support for Angel's House.
