Rebuilding foundations...
Restoring lives!
Far too many kids are
caught in the cycle of domestic, child and sexual
abuse.
But
there is a solution.
Safe
Place for kids is just that.
Just $47 can help keep
children from suffering years of
abuse
by providing just
one square foot of safe housing. A place to call
home
while they get help and
while they
heal.

Purpose
Safe
Place for Kids, Inc is a not-for-profit organization
that will build and provide safe places for children
that will enable licensed child advocate groups with an
environment in which they may make a positive difference
and restore hope in the lives of abused and neglected
children.
The
Vision
The Vision
Statement at Safe Place for Kids was
established as an outline of the process that the
organization will encompass to accomplish its mission.
With our roots based in faith, we will serve as property
management to identify, locate and tailor available
space to specific requirements for multiple Not for
profit agencies. We will offer the
complementing agencies the opportunity to lease their
locations at reduced rates. We offer this service so
that small to medium Non for profit organizations can
use their precious funding toward their unique mission.
Safe Place for Kids will play a role
in eradicating child abuse and neglect in our community
and is committed to the building, rehabilitation and
development of locations that enable licensed
child advocate groups with an environment in which they
may make a positive difference and restore hope in the
lives of abused and neglected children. Using 5 simple
steps, the “Five E’s” as a guideline, Safe Place for
Kids will partner with Non for profit agencies, through
a grant process, that serve children or families in any
measure of these 5 statements.
Enfold:

children
