What is Safe Families?
Safe Families is a volunteer movement that connects the children of parents in distress with host families who have been called to open their hearts, their arms and their homes to serve those in need. The Safe Families experience starts at church, where families are invited to not only change the lives of a fellow family for better, but to enrich their own with untold blessings by living out the gospel. By hosting these vulnerable children along with support from their church, this extended family environment helps keep children safe and reunite families all in the name of Christ.

What is Love INC? (In the name of Christ)
Love INC mobilizes local churches in northern Collier and Southern Lee County to transform lives and communities in the name of Christ. We do that by effectively connecting with their church partners and the surrounding community while mobilizing the body of Christ to function as local missionaries. Verified needs of neighbors in need are primarily met through the churches, with the goal of connecting our client with a partner church to achieve life transformation.
