North Texas Giving Day is TOMORROW!

Tomorrow, September 17, you can make a difference for children in foster care — and your gift can go twice as far.

A generous anonymous donor has committed to a matching gift, meaning every dollar you give can be matched, up to $30,000.

Your generosity helps give children a voice, a story, and greater visibility through the Heart Gallery of North Texas as they wait to find the loving, permanent families they deserve.

Give tomorrow or start your gift early today.

At 11 years old, Branden finds joy in the simple things—good food, car rides, family time, and being around people he loves. He is affectionate, funny, and has his own unique way of communicating.

Branden is nonverbal, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have plenty to say. Once he trusts you, he will gravitate toward you and show just how loving he can be.

Branden needs a family who is loving, patient, structured, and willing to learn how he communicates, celebrate his progress, and never give up on him. He deserves a family that will be dedicated and committed to him for a lifetime.

A heartfelt thank you to 💙

Meet Ociezecharia, or “OC,” a thoughtful 16-year-old who finds peace and creativity through sewing.

OC dreams of using his sewing skills to make warm clothes for people experiencing homelessness. He’s kind, respectful, and always thinking of others. Most of all, he hopes to find a forever family who will accept him for who he is and encourage him to be his own person.

OC is ready to give his whole heart to a family of his own.

Heart Gallery stands with OCOK in sharing these heartfelt sentiments for the families and communities impacted by the devastating Ross Fire in Palo Pinto County.

🔥 Our hearts are with our Palo Pinto County families right now.

The Ross Fire has burned tens of thousands of acres across Palo Pinto County and surrounding areas, forcing evacuations and touching communities we know well — Mineral Wells, Palo Pinto, and Graford.

Our team has been checking in on our foster, adoptive, and kinship families throughout the affected area, and we'll continue to do so in the days ahead. We're here, we're thinking of you, and we're ready to support you however you need.

To our Palo Pinto County families, first responders, and neighbors: please stay safe. Our hearts are with you.

Stay safe, North Texas. 💜
