HOPE & A FUTURE Hope & A Future serves abused and neglected children in the Arizona foster care system by helping them reach their potential and achieve their dreams. Founded in 2004, Hope & A Future is celebrating 18 years of supporting Arizona foster kids. We receive no government funding and operate entirely through donations and the Foster Care Tax Credit. Sixty-seven percent of foster kids drop out of high school, and only 3 percent ever graduate from college. Your donation allows us to form relationship-based connections through our summer camps, life-skills training, mentoring, tutoring and educational scholarships. Through these programs, we improve foster kids’ long-term outcomes by offering them hope and a brighter future. azhope.com Tax Code 10021 FREE ARTS FOR ABUSED CHILDREN OF ARIZONA Free Arts transforms children’s trauma into resilience through the arts. Volunteer mentors and artists create a safe environment where children can express themselves, acquire skills, develop self-efficacy and build hope. “It’s showed me how to use my coping skills, and I love to participate in these things! Thank you.” — Ahdrinah, Weekly Mentor program participant, age 12 When you donate to Free Arts, you contribute to our annual efforts to serve 8,000 Arizona children residing in foster care and homeless shelters. Trauma, including abuse and homelessness, can cause major changes to the brains and bodies of developing children. By participating in activities that combine the arts and mentoring, these children build resilience to help overcome their past trauma and move into a positive future.

OCJ KIDS OCJ (Opportunity, Community and Justice for Foster) Kids’ equips at-risk and foster youth with tools, resources and healthy relationships to succeed and excel in every area of life. As children and youth navigate the foster care system, they are often left lacking in basic resources and emotional support. OCJ Kids provides the children in Arizona’s foster system with essential resources, including hygiene, underwear and clothing. We provide emergency food during the time the children are being removed and create positive moments and memories through programs such as the Summer Reading Program, Cowboy Camp, and Bearizona Adventures. Foster youth who have aged out of the system participate in a phone program that allows our staff and mentors to provide resources during the transition to independent living. ocjkids.org Tax Code 10018 ONWARD HOPE, INC Onward Hope’s mission is to empower and connect youth and families in and from foster care to overcome trauma and homelessness to create successful futures for themselves. Over 900 teens in Arizona’s foster-care system age out of foster care each year. The need for equipped, loving foster and adoptive families for teenagers and sibling groups continues to rise. Many of these teens leave foster care with no formal connections and need a committed adult in their life to help them build their capacity for critical life skills. Our innovative services include preparing and supporting families to care for children of all ages from foster care and providing coaching mentors to help teach teens how to build the necessary skills to thrive. onwardhope.org Tax Code 10048 Qualified Foster Care Organizations | $500 per Individual / $1,000 per Married Couple TAX CREDIT GIVING GUIDE | FRONTDOORS MEDIA 71
