Thank
you for taking a moment to visit our website and
learn about the many critical services provided
by Boys and Girls Homes of North Carolina, Inc.
If you are reading this, then you already
have a feeling for the needs of abused and
neglected children in North Carolina.
Every day hundreds of children suffer
from pain, hunger, and the inner loss created by
a lack of love from their parents or caregivers.
When their situation becomes acute, Boys
and Girls Homes steps in to provide the things
these children and youth have been lacking their
entire lives:
a safe, loving home, good and plentiful
food, appropriate education, structure and
support, and the opportunity to realize their
true worth and value as they move into the adult
world.CORPORATE PARTNERSHIPS
The children and youth that live at Boys and Girls Homes go on to become productive members of their community. They may even work for your organization one day. As a member of the business community, you understand that people who are unskilled and unemployed drain their community of resources, while a trained worker adds value: they buy homes and cars, they pay taxes, they support their families, and they elevate the overall quality of their community. No business can succeed without a solid base of stable, skilled employees. When your organization invests in the programs offered at Boys and Girls Homes, it invests in the health of the entire community, now and well into the future.
Programs that benefit the community as a whole include our World of Work program, our farm operations and Exhibition Center, and our Vocational Center. Through these programs, young people learn how to work and manage money, and they acquire a specific job skill. You can partner with Boys and Girls Homes by supporting these programs with a financial donation or by making work and internships available to residents who are transitioning into independent living. We also have many naming opportunities for those organizations who are interested in a long-term partnership. If your organization has a matching gift program, your employees can become directly involved in supporting the children and youth who come to our campus or are served by our adoption/foster care program.
Everyone is a winner when they become involved in Boys and Girls Homes! Please contact me if you would like to learn more about our programs, take a tour of the campus, and explore ways your organization can partner in the success of these special young people.
FOUNDATIONS
Charitable foundations like yours are constantly looking for organizations that are making a difference in the welfare of their community, organizations like Boys and Girls Homes that can make your foundation’s mission a reality. With over fifty years of successful operations, Boys and Girls Homes is a perfect opportunity for foundations that recognize the need for quality intervention in the lives of abused and neglected children and youth. Our programs are comprehensive and encourage optimum development for every child that enters our care. From birth to age 22, children and youth are nurtured and supported, starting with the possibility of adoption into a permanent home. The best home for a child is a permanent, loving home. While the child’s family of origin is addressing its problems, trained foster parents step in to manage the child’s care – school, therapy, medical attention, recreation, and spiritual development. If the child or youth can be better served with a residential program, they come to our campus and live with Teaching Parents in well-maintained, homelike cottages. The campus also holds a school for grades six through twelve, a Career Center, a World of Work program, farm operations, a horsemanship program, and a spiritual development program.
Our evidenced-based practices and outcomes focused programs have led to successful transition to responsible adulthood for over 3,000 children since we opened our doors in 1956. For detailed program descriptions, please contact me at 910-646-3083 or by email at
