Every child deserves a champion.
Welcome to Bessie’s Angels, a nonprofit based in Cleveland, Ohio, dedicated to nurturing, empowering, and educating young women who have experienced the foster care system. We also provide low-income housing to support these young women in building stable lives.
Many of the girls we serve come from low-income backgrounds, with some living below the poverty line. Our warm and welcoming homes offer them stability and a sense of belonging.
Imagine not having a place to call home or constantly moving from one place to another. For these girls, losing the family they once relied on is a harsh reality. With just a little support, we can make a world of difference in their lives. As the saying goes, "Every child deserves a champion," and your organization can be that champion. Please refer to the attached page for details on how you can support our cause at various levels.
Together, we can create brighter futures for Cleveland, Ohio's foster care girls. Join us in making a meaningful impact today.
