After the Rescue

The rescue is just the beginning.

We rescue babies and then walk with the families. For months. For years. Through baby showers, first homes and birthdays.

In their words

Years later

"We stand in difficult places for the little ones because eventually things like this happen."

Scott · on Bella's second birthday

"At first I thought you were crazy. Then I heard you speak, and I knew it was a sign from God that I should keep my baby."

Gabby · Washington, DC

"Seeing mommas pregnant, and then babies born, and then babies grow up. There are no words to describe the joy it brings my heart."

Scott · eleven years in
Through the years
