From your heart to their home this holiday season.

This Christmas, you can help make the season brighter for the young women of Bethany House through Hope for Her Christmas.
Each gift on this list was hand-selected by our girls - practical items and small joys that remind them they are seen, loved, and not alone.
When you purchase from this list, you’re delivering more than a package, you’re delivering hope. -
If you would prefer to give gifts that are not specific to an individual resident or client, below are some additional items that are always a special treat for our girls and make the Bethany House touch a little sweeter around the holidays!
About us
It all started with a girl.
This young woman faced a failed adoption after several years in the foster care system. She met Amy, our Executive Director, at an event for at-risk youth and opened Amy’s eyes to the realities that face youth who age out of care or who experience failed adoptions. She moved in with Amy and her family and began to experience life change after only a few weeks within their home. She was later adopted by Amy and her husband, and is now a married, working mother of two boys, and shares about the challenges she has overcome.
This experience led Amy to start to wonder. What would happen if there was a home?
And the dream for Bethany House was born…
