About Us
Children At Heart Ministries
Children At Heart Ministries supplements administrative, accounting, human resources, information technology services, fundraising, and communications services to our family of ministries at no cost. These affiliate arrangements allow our family of ministries to significantly control general administrative and fundraising costs, which maximizes donor gifts for direct care of children and families in need.
Gracewood
Helping single mothers and their children rise above.
At Gracewood, we allow single mothers and their children who find themselves in crises to hit the pause button and refocus their future toward safety, happiness,and independence. By guiding them in their pursuit of independence, they learn the basic tools they need to make long-term, quality-of-life improvements.
Miracle Farm
We join Christ in forging broken and hurting boys into men of character and purpose.
Rooted in Christian faith and western heritage, our one-of-a-kind ranch helps struggling young men experience healing, earn an education, and learn respect. Through our innovative horse program and on-site academic and vocational training, young men establish and achieve goals for a lifetime, and learn to believe in themselves as something more than society has painted them to be. It all happens in a safe, structured environment where they have the opportunity to turn their lives around and become responsible young men.
Texas Baptist Children’s Home
Embrace. Empower. Equip.
Children and single mothers, and youth aging out of foster care or facing homelessness, who come to TBCH are often lost, hurting, and hopeless, without a place to turn for help during their time of greatest need. Our residential program provides a safe home and a stable family environment where they can learn, grow, and ultimately experience a happy, healthy future.
Your Contribution. Their Future.

GIVING
opportunities are varied. The following information reviews several options for contributing to Children At Heart Ministries (CAHM), Gracewood, Miracle Farm, or Texas Baptist Children’s Home (TBCH) that can provide tax savings to you and address individual needs.
Whether providing annual operating funds to meet the daily needs of children and families or gifts designated for a specific purpose, such as a capital need, replacement of aging equipment or funding an endowment to provide perpetual income, charitable gifts allow donors to reduce their taxes and, through certain planned options, increase their income. Most of all, your gifts will have a big impact on the lives of children and families in need.
CAHM urges donors to consult their personal financial advisors prior to making major gifts.
