About Us

Helping Families and Children in Need

The I Believe Foundation was founded by Kathy Lasseter in 2007 with a simple but profound mission: to serve children falling through the cracks. These are the children whose parents work hard, earn too much to qualify for public assistance, yet still cannot afford the basics — school supplies, proper nutrition, educational opportunities, and the simple dignity every child deserves.

Our work spans South Florida and the Florida Keys, focusing on scholarships, holiday presents, and meals for families who work hard but still come up short. We don't just fund programs; we walk alongside families. We don't just write checks; we show up. We don't just talk about faith; we live it, one child at a time.

Values

What We Believe

✦

Faith in Action

We believe faith without works is incomplete. Every dollar we spend goes directly to scholarships, holiday presents, and meals for children who need it most.

✧

Dignity for All

Every child we serve is treated with absolute respect and dignity. We meet families where they are, without judgment or precondition, recognizing that hard work does not always mean enough.

✦

Community First

Real change happens at the community level. We identify children falling through the cracks and do what we can to help.

✧

Transparency

We steward every dollar as if it were our own. Our operations are visible and our impact is real. Scholarships, holiday presents, and meals — that is what we do.
