YOUR IMPACT

Miracles Still Happen.

When Maggie* first came to us, she barely held her head up when she would speak to you. She had very few life skills. She did not know how to take care of herself in regard to simple hygiene habits that most of us learn as children, and she was failing in school. But after being in our care—being consistently loved, protected, and nurtured—things began to change in Maggie’s life in the best ways.

YOUR IMPACT

No Longer Hungry.

When entering our care and seeing her room for the first time, Kayleigh* clapped excitedly because she had a pillow. She and her sister had been sleeping on the floor of their home. They took turns sharing a small blanket, but they did not have a pillow. She also clapped and cheered when she saw cans of food in our pantry and happily exclaimed to her sister that they would no longer be hungry!

Meeting Needs Together

Every year, there are approximately 6,000 children in Alabama’s foster care system.

The Women of Compassion giving community is making a direct impact on the lives of hundreds of these foster children, children just like the girls in these stories. By joining this movement, your generosity and your voice are essential to the impact made on the lives of the children and families we serve. 

Are you interested in helping give hope to foster children and hurting families across Alabama?

If so, join us in Women of Compassion, and help provide for them in a unique way!


the vision

Through this giving community, women can collectively impact the lives of children and families with a combined gift that is larger than most of us can afford to give as an individual. At our annual luncheon event, Women of Compassion members determine how their yearly contributions are spent.

Three larger ministry needs are presented at the luncheon, and each Women of Compassion member votes for one project that day they would like to see completed. The project gaining the most votes is announced at the conclusion of the luncheon, and soon after, work begins to see it completed within the year!  

The Women of Compassion giving community:

  • Offers opportunities for women to impact lives through an organization committed to serving children and families through Christ-centered services

  • Votes annually on how the fund is applied for proposed projects of Alabama Baptist Children’s Homes & Family Ministries

  • Keeps women informed about the needs of foster children and hurting families around the state of Alabama

Each luncheon event provides a way to connect with other members and enjoy a wonderful worship time together, a delicious meal, to hear from a special guest speaker, and vote on the Women of Compassion ministry project for the year. We hope you will join us on April 26!
