About

Angel’s House is all decorated for Christmas. 🎄 The girls are truly so excited, and we are always so blessed at Christmas to give them what many of them refer to as the best Christmas they have ever had. But we still walk into this season gently. This was our devotional tonight: A Christmas for Anyone Who Isn’t Home “And she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.” — Luke 2:7 Look around right now. The tree is up. The lights are on. The nativities are out. It looks like Christmas. But maybe for you, it doesn’t completely feel like Christmas — because this isn’t the house you pictured spending it in. Maybe you’re thinking about a different home, a different family, a different life than the one you’re living this year. If that’s you, then this story is more yours than you might think. Because Jesus spent His first Christmas away from home, too. Mary and Joseph didn’t live in Bethlehem. They had to travel there because the government ordered a census, and by the time they arrived, there was no guest room left for them. So the Son of God was born in the space that was available — not the space anybody would have chosen — and laid in a manger, a borrowed bed in a borrowed place. His first visitors weren’t family. They were shepherds, strangers who showed up because God sent them. So here is the truth of Christmas for anyone who isn’t home this year: home is not only the place you came from, and it’s not only a place you’re waiting to get to. God is able to meet you in the place you are now — in this house, with these people, in this season of your life — and He does not consider it second-best. He chose a manger on purpose. He is not embarrassed by your address. You are not forgotten, and you are not on hold until your “real life” starts. This is your life, God is in it, and there is room for you at this table.

He’s not scared of the spider. He’s scared because he just found out the tree is going up before Thanksgiving. 🎄😂 But seriously - our girls have had the best time celebrating fall! Amazing goodie baskets, all their favorite candy, and a face painting contest that absolutely did not disappoint. A few of our favorite looks: a bad case of stripes, a leopard, Harley Quinn, a time traveler — and some other creations we never could have dreamed up ourselves. These are the moments we love most. And we are so thankful for our amazing community, who makes these special, normal moments possible. 🍂 On to the season of extra! 🦃🎄🦃🎄

When you support Angel’s House, you help make moments like these possible. ❤️ A special dress. Hair curled just right. The excitement of getting ready for homecoming. Your generosity helps provide more than everyday necessities. It gives our girls opportunities to enjoy being teenagers, celebrate milestones, and make memories they can look back on with joy. Thank you for helping them feel cared for and celebrated—for homecoming and in the everyday moments, too. 💛 Homecoming 2026 ✨

We love that our college girls still think we’re cool enough to hang out with! 😂❤️ Loved getting to catch up with these girls and celebrate Angilina’s 25th birthday! We love them so much and couldn’t be prouder of all they’re accomplishing! 🎉 Happy Birthday Angilina!

🍂 Fall has arrived at Angel’s House! 🍁 There’s something special about this season: the cooler mornings, changing leaves, pumpkin everything, and the reminder that change can be beautiful. For the girls who call Angel’s House home, we hope this season brings moments of laughter, new memories, growing confidence, and the comfort of knowing they are surrounded by people who care about them. We are especially thankful for the friends, donors, churches, and community members who continue to show up for our girls. Your support helps make Angel’s House feel like home. 🧡 This season, we’re especially grateful for the extra love, encouragement, and support that surround our girls. Here’s to a season of gratitude, growth, and a little pumpkin-spice fun along the way! 🎃🍂

When you support Angel’s House, you support girls who have birthdays and love Snoopy, Highland cows, flowers, and tres leches cake. You support girls who want to be loved, accepted, encouraged, and believed in. Girls with big dreams, small dreams, and hopes that are still taking shape. You support girls who have had hard days, good days, and days when a little joy begins to find its way back. Today, we got to celebrate one of those joyful days. 🎂🎁 Thank you to our amazing community for loving our girls so well and for helping us make moments like this possible. Your support matters more than you know.

🎓📚 First Day of College Classes! We love that we still get these first-day pictures! ❤️ These girls have been part of Angel’s House for years, and while college has taken them into a new season of life, they are still very much a part of ours. We’re proud of the work they’re putting in, the goals they’re chasing, and the young women they continue to become. We’re still here, still supporting them, and still cheering them toward that finish line. 🎓💙 Have a great year, girls! We believe in you!

🎓✨ SENIOR YEAR IS OFF TO A GREAT START! ✨🎓 We have a SENIOR at Angel’s House, and she is already checking some pretty big things off her list! 💙 ✅ ACT & SAT — Completed ✅ College visits — Completed ✅ College applications — Completed ✅ Senior year — UNDERWAY! These checkmarks may look simple, but each one represents so much more—hard work, determination, planning, encouragement, and a young lady beginning to see just how many possibilities are ahead of her. At Angel’s House, our goal has never been simply to provide a safe place for our girls to live. We want to walk beside them as they discover who they are, what they are capable of, and what they want their future to look like. Moments like this are why that matters so much. 💙 Senior year brings a lot of “lasts,” but it also means we are getting closer to some pretty incredible firsts—the first acceptance letter, choosing a college, graduation day, moving onto campus, and beginning a whole new chapter. 🎓🏫 For now, we’re celebrating how far she has come, cheering her on through every step that remains, and reminding her that she has an entire Angel’s House family standing behind her. Next up… 📬 College acceptance letters

Our Angels are officially back to school and beginning another year filled with new opportunities, important goals, and big dreams. A very special thank-you to Natalie Bacho and Abby’s Angels Foundation for once again making sure our girls had everything they needed to start the year feeling prepared and confident. Your continued generosity and commitment to our Angels mean more than we can say. We also want to thank Arleshia Ware and Alexis Flores for providing haircuts and braiding for our girls. They walked into school with fresh hair, big smiles, and a little extra confidence because you helped them feel beautiful, cared for, and ready for the year ahead. We are grateful for the teachers, school staff, bus drivers, tutors, donors, volunteers, and community partners who will encourage and support our girls throughout the year. Two days down, a whole school year of possibilities to go! 💙🍎✏️

What a summer it has been at Angel’s House! ☀️💙 Summer at Angel’s House isn’t about keeping busy—it’s about creating safe experiences, building healthy relationships, discovering new interests, serving our community, and reminding every girl that she is valued, capable, and deeply loved. From dinners at local favorites, movie nights, shopping trips, ice cream stops, baseball games, horseback riding, safari adventures, theater performances, farmers markets, church events, patriotic celebrations, and Fourth of July fireworks, to college tours across Georgia, back-to-school shopping, haircuts, nail days, and countless evenings relaxing together at home, every moment helped create opportunities for connection, healing, and growth. One of our favorite parts of the summer was watching our girls dream about their futures through visits to Mercer University, Georgia Military College, Georgia College & State University, Georgia Tech, the University of North Georgia, and Dalton State College. We also celebrated exciting milestones as one of our young ladies proudly earned her driver’s license, while every girl had opportunities to build confidence, make memories, and prepare for the year ahead. Giving back remained a priority as our girls volunteered at Brookdale Senior Living, There’s More Soup Kitchen, and spent time serving alongside the Newnan Police Department and Coweta County Fire Rescue, while also helping raise awareness for the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Every experience was an opportunity to heal, grow, laugh, learn, and dream bigger. None of this happens without the generosity of our donors, volunteers, churches, businesses, and community partners. Because of you, our girls aren’t just making memories—they’re building brighter futures. Thank you for believing in them and investing in what healing can look like. 💙✨

WHY WE RUN We run for the ones who had no choice but to run from danger. For the teenager who was taken out of her home in the middle of the night, not knowing what tomorrow would bring — and then walked through the doors of Angel’s House and finally felt safe. We run for every girl who has ever cried herself to sleep in a strange bed — until this house became her home, her family, her safe place to heal and grow. We run so that hope and healing is possible. Because when our community laces up, every dollar raised through the Run for Angels goes directly to operating this group foster home where emotional healing, structure, and personal growth happen every single day. We run for: ✨ the girls who arrive with nothing but the clothes on their backs ✨ the quiet victories — homework finished, laughter shared, trust built ✨ the future each of them deserves We run because no child should face trauma alone
