Nonprofit Spotlight

Because Everyone Deserves a Second Chance

We love Little Rock and the passionate people who work every day to make our communities stronger. This week, we’re highlighting a local and statewide nonprofit that is changing the lives of families across Arkansas and beyond.

• 🌟 Second Chances – Restore Hope focuses on second chances. By connecting churches, nonprofits, and public agencies, it provides real-time support for families in crisis, reduces incarceration, prevents foster care entries, and helps people rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.

• ♥️ 100 Families – When a family is in crisis, it often requires more than one solution. Restore Hope’s program, 100 Families, is a coordinated care initiative that provides comprehensive support to help parents and guardians find housing, recovery, transportation, job training, and more, all so that hope can be restored.

Learn more about the mission and how to get involved at restorehope.io.
