Today’s leadership meeting at Advocates for Children came with a side of mischief! The team secretly coordinated an “Anything But a Cup” challenge to see how long it would take our CEO/President, Rachel, to notice what everyone was drinking from. 😂

Let’s just say the gravy bowl did most of the heavy lifting.

Rachel clearly sees the big picture. All the other “drinking cups” might have taken a minute. 👀

Serious about our mission. Never too serious for a little fun. 💙

One mission. Three ways we show up.

At Advocates for Children, our programs work together to meet children, youth, and families where they are. From advocating for children who need a voice, to helping young people find stability, to providing resources that strengthen families, each program is part of a bigger mission.

Different needs require different kinds of support, and we’re here through every step.

Protecting children. Empowering youth. Uplifting families.

Thank you, River City Bank! 💙
We are grateful to River City Bank for their generous gift through Georgia’s Fostering Success Act (FSA) tax credit. Their generosity supports our work with youth aging out of foster care — from CASA advocacy for older teens to Youth Independent Housing and Newman House.

Partners like River City Bank help us keep children’s needs at the center of everything we do. Thank you for investing in our community and in the young people who call it home.

Want to make an FSA gift of your own? Georgia taxpayers can redirect state tax dollars to support youth in foster care. Gifts must be received by Dec. 31 to count for 2026 — visit https://advochild.org/fostering-success-tax-credit/ to learn more.

Giving back means standing beside those who need it most.

For the Hankinson family and their business, Heatco, supporting Advocates for Children means helping children through critical moments, family challenges, foster care, and even the transition into adulthood.

It’s about using what you have to help change a child’s story.

Thank you to everyone who joined us last night for our Floyd Community Partners Celebration at the Courtyard Marriott in Rome! 💙

We are grateful to the community leaders, government officials, board members, partners, volunteers and supporters who filled the room. It was a joy to share stories and results from our growing work in Floyd County and to honor the people who make it possible.

Together, we are strengthening support for children, youth and families throughout Floyd County.

Protecting children. Empowering youth. Uplifting families.

Thank you to our 2026 Graze & Raise Presenting Sponsor, Heatco!

As our top-level partner, your generosity helps make this evening possible. Your support fuels our $250,000 goal and directly funds Advocates for Children’s work protecting kids, strengthening families, and empowering youth across Northwest Georgia.

We’re so grateful to have you leading the way.

Your Georgia tax dollars are already going somewhere. What if they could help a young person build a future?

Through the Georgia Fostering Success Tax Credit, eligible taxpayers can receive a dollar-for-dollar state income tax credit while supporting programs that help young people transitioning out of foster care.

Put your tax dollars to work right here in our community. Learn more and get started at https://advochild.org/fostering-success-tax-credit/ .

Why wouldn’t you do this?

The Fostering Success Tax Credit makes supporting Advocates for Children surprisingly simple. Apply, make your donation, keep your documentation, and receive a credit toward your Georgia state tax liability.

A simple process with the power to make a meaningful difference for foster youth.
