Our Vision

Our Vision

Touching Heart believes our children will shape the future of our world. That is why we aim to equip every child we encounter with the tools to be compassionate and loving leaders of tomorrow. Through our Kids on a Mission program,  Schools on a Mission program, Art of Giving Workshop and Summer Service Camp, youth of all ages learn how they can make a difference by sacrificing their time and energy to help those living in less fortunate circumstances. Looking to the future, we hope to see a world of people who care for one another, are willing to sacrifice for the greater good and teach their children the importance of turning their compassion into action!

Testimonials

Abby, 16 years

Touching Heart is amazing. Not only did it help me gain comfort in speaking with businesses and learning how to execute my own service projects, I got to give back to my community. It is transformative in so many ways and has been worth every second.

Touching Heart is a great program. I like that we can create events based on our interests and have fun helping other kids in need. Organizing a basketball event made me feel grateful to help because the cause I was supporting is personal to me. I felt like I was empowering other kids too. It’s amazing.

Touching Heart opened my eyes to the problems that other children face and has helped me open my heart to others. I'm thankful that Touching Heart gives me an avenue to give back to the community and teaches me to be a strong leader.

Diya, 15 years old

I have been involved with Touching Heart since kindergarten. Now, as a 10th grader, I'm grateful that it is a part of my life. I learned there are children around the world whose lives are very different from mine and that we don't have to be adults to make a difference.

I love that Touching Heart inspires kids to help other kids. It’s gives us opportunities to organize events, it’s really fun and exciting to see your effort come together to make a big impact for kids in foster care.

Touching Heart has taught me not to take anything for granted and to help others with an open mind and heart. Working on the Junior Board has introduced me to amazing people that I am proud to say I volunteer with. I love attending the events and seeing people's smiling faces, always ready to help!
