Point Hope is an organization that aspires to be the voice for forgotten children. One does not have to look farther than the end of their block, or the edge of their town, to find more than one forgotten child. Children brought into this world and immediately put into a state’s foster care program are prime examples. Other children are brought into this world by well-meaning parents who lose their way and their confidence to care for a child, and give up all hope of preparing the child for the years ahead. Outside of the United States, the number of children born into underdeveloped nations where resources and money are scarce, who are in desperate need of nutrition and education, are equally in need of a voice. Each example provides enough reason for Point Hope to exist as a beacon of caring and leadership for individuals who want to help as many children as possible realize their full potential. Point Hope’s mission is to provide long-lasting solutions that will benefit the forgotten children, and to be their voice, saying “Don’t forget about me; I am a person too.”
