Ten-year-old Isaac lived in constant fear. He was the target of his stepfather’s anger and cruelty. He was beaten, starved and neglected. Isaac suffered for years, not knowing if it would ever end.


Because you chose to make a difference in Isaac’s life, he felt truly safe for one of the first times. You made sure he had a warm bed and consistent meals. You gave him a supportive place to be vulnerable and process his trauma. Because of you, Isaac experienced his worth in Christ, and he began to finally feel safe.

Isaac was regularly forced to watch his family eat dinner, without being allowed to join. Isaac was told horrible things about himself and made to believe he deserved the pain. Even after he was removed from his home and placed with a loving foster family, Isaac still did not think he was safe. He pushed everyone away and even threatened to end his own life.


Because of you, this precious little boy is receiving consistent care and has a safe place to stay. You made sure he had a warm bed and healthy meals. He felt truly safe for the first time in his life which allowed him to open up and process his pain and trauma.


Isaac now has healthy coping and problem-solving skills to manage his fear and anger. He used to regularly lash out at staff and peers but now has healthy, trust-worthy relationships.


Isaac recently discharged back to his foster parents who will be adopting him! Isaac is so excited to be returning to the place he can now officially call home.


Thank you for showing Isaac how precious he is! He now knows that people care. He has dreams for his future. Thank you!
