Your support shapes a better future for children and families
Your generosity becomes the hands and feet of Jesus, answering his call to defend the vulnerable and care for those in need.
Our response to growing needs
Bethany Christian Services was founded on a simple but powerful principle: Every child is made in the image of God. He knows each child uniquely and cares deeply for their every need. As his most cherished creation, children deserve nothing less than unconditional love and a safe, nurturing environment.
As the largest Christian child and family organization in the U.S., Bethany offers services that meet clients’ ever-changing needs. So when families face a crisis, we'll be there—protecting children by strengthening their families. Because we believe everyone deserves to be safe, loved, and connected.
80+ years of empowering children and families
For over 80 years, we've been dedicated to supporting vulnerable children and families across the United States. Through our commitment and care, we've served more than 1 million children and families, making a meaningful impact in communities nationwide. With 33 locations throughout the U.S., our reach continues to grow—bringing hope, resources, and support where it's needed most.
