OUR MISSION
The Cedar Valley Angels mission is to walk alongside children, youth, and families in the foster care community by offering consistent support through intentional giving, relationship building, and mentorship.

INTENTIONAL GIVING:
Give thoughtful and personalized resources, gifts, and care packages that meet the real needs of the child and their entire family.
RELATIONSHIP BUILDING:
Devote time and energy to fostering healthy relationships that promote healing through connections and interpersonal bonding.
MENTORSHIP:
Equip and empower the youth in our programs to be prepared for independent living, accomplish tailored goals, build connections, and reach their fullest potential.

​OUR CORE VALUES
Community. Empowerment. Hope. Curiosity. Transformation.
​

HOPE
We lead with hope because we deeply believe in our ability to create a better future.

COMMUNITY
​We cultivate togetherness by treating everyone with dignity, respect, and compassion. We are better together.

EMPOWERMENT
We empower our community to take action rooted in the belief that we have responsibility to one another. Together, we remove barriers to create lasting change. ​

CURIOSITY
​We maintain an attitude of humble curiosity, putting aside judgment to seek truth, knowledge, and understanding. We remain lifelong learners to better ourselves and our community. ​

TRANSFORMATION
​We are social entrepreneurs who refuse to settle for the way things are. We are committed to creating an environment that allows everyone to realize and fulfill their talents and potential. By doing so, we will transform the world we live in.

OUR ​VISION
Every single child/youth who experiences foster care has the opportunity to reach their fullest potential, and every family who fosters is radically supported in their journey.
​

Our NORTH STAR is to change the statistics. Statistics say that youth in foster care experience higher rates of negative outcomes such as homelessness, unemployment, and incarceration compared to their peers who are not in foster care. But we believe these outcomes can change. Why? Our programs are built to create positive change, and our research validates our impact.

Our WHY is the belief that children should have a deep sense of belonging, and caregivers should be radically supported on their journey. ​
