Hope for 100

Below is from the Hope for 100 website, which looks like a good way to put a tangible goal in front of a church for adoption, foster care, and orphan care.

What is involved in a local church Hope for 100 campaign?

The goal of Hope for 100 is to provide local churches with the practical tools to carry out the Biblical mandate to care for the fatherless through adoption, foster care, and orphan care.

Through a comprehensive manual, member login-area to the website, and ongoing coaching with Hope for 100 staff, we will walk with you through the implementation of your local campaign.

The goal of "100" can include 100 children adopted, 100 families fostering, 100 folks going overseas to serve orphans, etc. The number can be increased or decreased to suit a church's particular calling from God: Hope for 50, Hope for 500, etc.
