Partnerships

Foster the City

Foster the City inspires and equips local churches with tools, resources, and support that enables them to develop a sustainable, effective foster care ministry. Together, they are working toward the day when the list of children waiting for a home will be replaced with a list of families waiting to share their homes.

CAP-SV

The mission of Coalition Alleviating Poverty-Silicon Valley (CAP-SV) is to see all Christians and Christian organizations in Silicon Valley doing their part in reducing poverty and proclaiming good news to the poor. They equip faith communities to adopt poverty pockets in Silicon Valley and implement place-based and asset-based ministries.
