Every child deserves the fullness of childhood.
A Missouri 501(c)(3) nonprofit • Springfield, Missouri
Who we are
We were founded on a simple conviction: every child deserves the fullness of childhood, and every child is made in the image of God. Our focus is foster children — and the families who open their homes to care for them.
What we’re building
We’re building on a model proven by Angels’ Arms in St. Louis — bringing that same kind of care to foster families here in the Springfield area.
Safe, stable housing so foster families can say yes to the children who need them.
Helping brothers and sisters stay together instead of being separated across placements.
Everyday essentials, encouragement, and community so foster families don’t carry it alone.
Churches, businesses, and neighbors coming together to provide for the needs of foster children.
The need
Across the Springfield metro — Springfield, Nixa, Ozark, and Republic — far too many children enter foster care needing a safe place to land, and there are never enough homes ready to receive them.

Where we are today
Grace Filled Homes is incorporated in Missouri and recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt public charity (EIN 41-4850423). We’re in our earliest days — building our board, forming partnerships, and laying the groundwork to serve foster families well.
Right now our biggest need is financial support to launch — and our online giving is coming very soon. But we’re a brand-new organization, and we’re open to however you’d like to help: giving, time, skills, partnership, or prayer.
