JOIN THE 800 STRONG MOVEMENT!
It takes 800 Champions to serve 525 families. Right now, we’re helping 175 families a year. With 800 Champions stepping up, we can triple that.
Every Champion matters. Every gift counts. Will you be one of the 800?
Right now, somewhere in Palm Beach County, a child is experiencing trauma that will shape their entire future.
But it doesn’t have to define it.
Every month, over 1,000 children enter our child welfare system. Every month, 130+ babies fight for life in NICUs. These families need healing. They need hope. They need us.
The Children’s Healing Institute has the proven programs to break cycles of trauma and build resilience. But we can only serve a fraction of families who need us.
Until now.
RAISING RESILIENCE. A pathway to triple our impact.
Introducing a new campaign presenting a pathway to
• Triple the size and scope of our transformative programs.
• Enable us to meet the critical growing needs of families in Palm Beach County
Break cycles of abuse so that every child can have a chance to thrive.
Our goal: Raise $300,000 in 3-6 months to create the RAISING RESILIENCE Fund
RAISING RESILIENCE creates the infrastructure and momentum that leads to lasting change
RAISING RESILIENCE is the launch pad for our bold vision: to triple the number of families served each year
Your gift sparks resilience!
JOIN THE 800 STRONG MOVEMENT!
We need 800 Champions to triple our reach from 175 to 525 families served each year. The 525 Circle—our grassroots giving level—is named after those 525 families whose lives will be transformed. Every gift, from $25 to $50,000, brings us closer to that goal.
When you invest in RAISING RESILIENCE, you’re not just supporting one program—you’re building the foundation for community-wide transformation.
With your support of RAISING RESILIENCE PBC, you are
- Building the financial and operational strength to scale up programs.
- Laying the groundwork to triple our reach to families in crisis.
- Creating a ripple effect of resilience across the community.

Current Focus:
We’re building the foundation for this campaign by engaging key stakeholders and refining our growth strategy. Every conversation we’re having now is an investment in our ability to serve more families.
WHY 800 CHAMPIONS?
We did the math:
-175 families served now
+ 350 more families = 525 families total
÷ Sustainable funding = 800 Champions needed
When 800 people in Palm Beach County say “not in my community,” we can:
✓ Eliminate our waitlist
✓ Respond to every crisis call
✓ Triple our impact
✓ Ensure EVERY child grows up safe
The Power of the Movement:
If 800 people gave the cost of daily coffee ($5/day = $150/month):
→ We could serve 525 families instead of 175
→ That’s 350 MORE children who grow up safe
→ 350 MORE families who break cycles of trauma
→ 350 MORE lives changed forever
The question isn’t “Can I afford it?”
The question is “Can THEY afford for me not to?”
