Join us in sharing hope through
FOOD, PLAY, STORY
Our Vision
is to empower future generations to live a hope-filled, Christ-centered life. We see the value in impacting the wholeness of a child as we help to feed the body, fill the soul, and fuel the spirit.
Our Approach
Through our three programs, with partners both domestically and internationally, we are helping children thrive by providing physical nourishment, the joy of play, and hope found in Christ through the sharing of His Word.
With dedicated groups and teams, meals are packed for kids and communities facing hunger and malnutrition, providing daily nutrition they need to thrive.
Alongside passionate volunteers, upcycled playgrounds are being built for kids living in difficult circumstances, bringing joy and laughter to kids across the globe.
In partnership with local pastors and leaders, stories from the Bible are being shared the way Jesus taught to help kids find hope in Christ.
Community Transformation
When these three programs come together, powerful and lasting transformation is taking place in communities around the world.
Our Hope Zone Communities
7200+ kids in 85 communities, and growing!
Our teams in various countries work side-by-side with local churches or leaders to create environments where the FOOD, PLAY, STORY approach is implemented to deliver hope to kids and families, and ultimately see whole communities transformed through God’s love.
Ministry Partners
We follow God’s leading to collaborate with like-minded organizations to multiply resources for greater impact on children served within their communities. Partnering with child-focused ministries like yours, we believe our combined efforts can more effectively expand His Kingdom to build a generation full of hope.Â

Partnering with KATW has empowered Ranch Church to extend our help beyond the local community. Everyone enjoys serve day, where we pack meals, because it’s fun, easy, and we know we are directly feeding those in need!

A children’s playground fosters community, provides a safe space for physical activity, and supports social and spiritual growth. It helps kids build friendships, practice teamwork, and learn biblical values through play. The New Light Foundation partnered with KATW to build the first-ever playground in this village destroyed by the 2004 Tsunami. Seeing children enjoy this space is pure joy. Several now attend church with their caregivers.
