What is Hope to Belong?
Hope to Belong, a doTERRA Healing Hands Foundation® initiative, addresses one of the root causes of human trafficking and exploitation.
The most vulnerable children in our communities are those without permanent families. A majority of child sex trafficking victims were children in foster care in the United States or in orphanages around the world. These children need families to keep them safe. Through Hope to Belong, you can help children find loving families, giving them every opportunity to thrive and grow in protected homes.
Get Involved
The first step in creating change is building awareness through sharing information. Many people don’t know that kids in foster care without support are at risk for human trafficking. Sharing statistics, graphics, and videos takes only a moment, but it can have a large impact in the life a child.
Foster families often need additional support to help them in caring for the children in foster care in their homes. If you know a foster family in your area, providing services such as haircuts, meals, or babysitting, can make a big difference. You can also offer support by donating below.
In the United States, over 100,000 children in the foster care system are eligible for adoption. You can help these children find their forever homes. Follow the link at the bottom of this page to view and share videos of children awaiting adoption.
Help with Filming
By producing high quality videos, we are able to give eligible children in foster care a face and a voice, increasing their chances for adoption. It’s a proven metric, just $1,000 per child is all it takes to produce a professional video that promotes their story. Over 50% of the children with videos are placed with permanent families within the first six months.

Support Children Aging Out
Despite best efforts, there are some children aging out of the foster system. Unfortunately, this scenario often results in homelessness and even exploitation. Through donations we are able to help meet these children’s needs, setting them up for a greater chance at success. By helping a child get driving lessons, a computer, or specialized training, you can give them a better chance at success in life. Click on the donate button below to contribute.
