Our Mission

To mobilize the local Church to create life-changing moments for children who have experienced relational trauma.

With over 250 chapters across the US and globe, For The Children is a nonprofit comprised of a network of local churches dedicated to providing unconditional love, hope and safety to children. All FTC chapters meet our international accreditation safety and compliance standards.

We are motivated by the example Christ set, to share a common goal, of caring for those Jesus referred to as, “the least of these.”

Safety

Family

Every child deserves to feel safe, and live a life free of neglect, abuse, and violence.
Every child deserves to live in a family that provides basic stability, care, and love.

Rights

Future

Every child deserves dignity. They are human beings with their own individual human rights. They must be allowed to play, learn, develop, and flourish.
Every child deserves a life free from oppression, and full of opportunity to make independent and informed decisions to shape a desired future.

Same Heart, New Name, Bigger Impact.

We are now For The Children and here’s why.

For more than 30 years, volunteers, churches, businesses, local municipal partners and Royal Family Kids staff have dedicated their time, talent and treasures to help transform the lives of vulnerable children across the US, and world.

While RFK has formally overseen our camps and mentoring programs, the breadth of our work has evolved far beyond these two programs. Today we provide direct trauma intervention, advocacy, fostering, adoption, support to parents, and other crucial wraparound services.

While we acknowledge the expansion of our work across our 252 chapters, COVID-19 has profoundly increased the needs of children and families. Extreme gaps in fulfilling these needs cannot be overstated.

In order to address the systemic issues surrounding child welfare today, our organization must respond.

Consequently, as of November 2020, Royal Family KIDS, will officially be renamed For The Children. This transition will bring clarity to new opportunities, from providing laptops and shoes to needy children, to assisting overburdened social workers, to providing temporary shelter.

The teaching and example of Jesus in caring for “the least of these” will remain our motivation. As For The Children, we are also eager to focus on the systemic issues facing children, around the globe.
