Your sponsorship does so much – first, it funds our Kids on a Mission, Schools on a Mission and Art of Giving programs that help children learn about the joy of giving back. Second, your donation multiplies in value as these children complete service projects and raise funds to provide basic necessities for children in local foster care, in local homeless shelters, and in carefully screened orphanages worldwide.

Touching Heart is proud to inspire kids with the joy of giving through programs that focus on educating children about needs in their local communities as well as a round the world, and then creating hands-on opportunities for them to make a difference. Our Family Gala is sure to be fun for the whole family, while supporting Touching Heart’s ability to empower the next generation of compassionate leaders!

Our sponsors make Touching Heart programs possible! Be a part of this inspiring evening on September 22nd, 2018 and make a difference! View the sponsorship opportunities here!
