About Show Hope:

A ministry founded by Steven Curtis and Mary Beth Chapman to help care for the millions of orphans around the world, Show Hope helps provide waiting orphans with forever families by giving financial grants to those adopting. To date, Show Hope is an internationally recognized voice for orphan advocacy and has given more than 2,300 financial grants, affecting the lives of children from 45 countries, including the United States. In addition to giving financial grants, Show Hope also empowers families, churches and communities with adoption and orphan care resources and advocacy efforts to change the world for orphans.

In the summer of 2009, Show Hope opened the doors to Maria's Big House of Hope, a six-story healing home facility located in Luoyang, China, which provides surgeries and medical care for special needs orphans. The mission of this healing home is to provide the highest level of care for these orphans who are in desperate need of surgeries and medical attention, thus enabling the children to thrive and increase the orphans' chances of being adopted.
