HumanKind

HumanKind At HumanKind, we envision compassionate Virginia communities where every person is valued, and communities prosper. Who is HumanKind? What does HumanKind do?

Our Mission
Our mission is to strengthen individuals and families through care, counseling, and education. HumanKind is a non-profit human services organization that has been serving children and families for more than 100 years. We offer programs and services that instill hope and equip people with the tools to build a strong foundation for life. We rely on donations, grants and local volunteers

to serve those in need, and have strong connections to wide-ranging resources focused on helping individuals become more productive, healthier, and stronger. By helping individuals reach their potential, we are building strong families and communities! At its heart, HumanKind is about developing potential and building people up by providing hope and the tools to build a better life. With an emphasis on inclusion, we help individuals and families who face any number of life’s challenges. Our programs cover everything from financial education to mental health counseling, from early childhood resources to services for adults with disabilities. We bring our strength and experience to our work every day because we believe strong individuals and families build stronger communities.

💙HumanKind’s Foster Care program is the evolution of our commitment to caring for children that began more than 120 years ago. Founded in 1903, our organization began as an orphanage and has grown to meet the changing needs of children and families across Virginia. Today, our mission remains the same: creating safety, stability, and hope.

💙Whether you’re ready to foster now or just want to learn more, attending an info session or completing an interest form is a powerful first step.

💙HumanKind's team loved attending the Virginia Center for Inclusive Communities Lynchburg Chapter Humanitarian Awards Dinner last week. Four Lynchburg community icons were honored for their contributions to building inclusive spaces through volunteerism and elevating the experiences of their neighbors. It was extra special to see HumanKind Board Chair Jennifer Huffman's father Anthony Bonds among those being recognized. We honor and appreciate the beautiful work of these neighbors!
