When taking a look at Connections Homes I would think that this would be a typical construction company that sells doors. Once taking a closer look into their website, you will find that there is nothing typical about them.
Connections Homes is a faith-based non-profit that is driven to connect young adults that are coming out of the foster care system to a family that will care for them. They could not be ignoring children and young adults that don’t have a stable, trustworthy family behind them. Connections Homes is about belonging, the kids and young adults of the world deserve to belong to someone forever.
Connections Homes is based on Gods words from John 14:18, “I will not leave you alone (comfortless, orphaned), I will come to you.” As an organization they believe that no one should be alone. They are being moved continually to be finding families that are willing to bring the youth into their homes so that they don’t have to be going through life alone anymore.
After taking an ever deeper dive into their website I came to find the layout that they have of some of their core values, they are using the acronym HEART and having a little blurb for each letter in the word. Also, by using the word heart shows that the meaning of it is down to earth and wholesome, there is meaning behind each aspect not just a corporate stamp all over the values. Connections Homes wants you to feel loved and welcomed.
Their values reflect their HEART:
H – Honor God and others
E – Empower one another
A – Accountability by taking ownership and responsibility
R – Relationships with others
T – Transparency with their live by being upfront
Connections Homes is committed to changing the outcomes of the forgotten population’s lives by connecting the youth with loving and caring families that will be there to walk with them through their life’s journey.
