The Foundation moved its three member staff into a permanent office, established new
operational policies, created plans to increase legacy giving, established a church
appreciation project, and became charter members of the Bishop’s Children Matter Most
initiative. Tribute gifts increased to 219, the largest number ever received in a year. We
welcomed 360 new donors and ten new legacy donors. We received $784,614 in donations
from 1,275 donors. The “three-legged stool” of Home leadership, (the Foundation Board,
Auxiliary Executive Committee and Home’s Board of Trustees) joined Home staff in The
Heart of The Home giving-club. Because of you, our children made academic progress.
They learned social skills. They found happiness and hope for the future, and they learned
about God’s love. The Foundation continues to grow to ensure Indiana youth in crisis will
always have a place to call Home and find hope for the future.

Your Gifts Give Youth Like Ava Hope for the Future.

Ava, now 17, is finding hope on our campus. The past abuse she endured was especially
harsh during holidays. When she arrived at the Children’s Home, our treatment team began
helping her work through her behavioral challenges that resulted from severe trauma. She
experienced fear of being around adult males and struggled initiating greetings and
engaging in conversation.

Our skilled team identified Ava’s social behaviors that were barriers to her finishing school,
maintaining employment and finding happiness. Through the consistency of our Teaching
Family Model and our caring staff, Ava is now flourishing at our on-campus school,
succeeding at her part-time job in the community and aspires to attend college or a trade
school in early 2022. She also volunteers in the community and is now known on campus for
being kind, friendly and helping her peers. Her progress is no surprise to staff helping her
heal from her past.

“Ava’s progress is remarkable. She is the first to volunteer here at our chapel garden and
always strives to serve others,” said Rachel Alstott, the Home’s spiritual life director. “Her
loyal attendance in our early Monday morning prayer circle is encouraging. She is seeking
opportunity to grow in her spiritual life.”
