Our Mission

Our mission is to restore hope and encourage children in foster care, who we call Dreamers, to dream again. We are committed to raising awareness about life after foster care, while providing resources, tools and everyday essentials as they age out of the Tampa Foster Care system and enter into a new phase of adulthood.

Our Current Donation Campaign

Packing w/ Purpose Suitcase Donation Drive 2021

More that 24,000 kids age out of U.S. Foster Care each year. Without that support that comes from an adoptive family or permanency connection, these kids face instant homelessness. Every donation towards our Packing with Purpose Donation drive will make sure these teens are not forced to carry their personal items in a trash bag. No Trash Bags here!

Our 1st Packing with Purpose Suitcase Donation Drive

When we initially starting the Packing w/ Purpose Suitcase Donation Drive, it was only supposed to be once a year. However, the community outpour and the need for suitcases after our campaign ended, were both so great. We quickly realized we were making a huge impact on lives and that children age out of foster care daily, not just at Christmas. We changed our plans and started collecting and giving out suitcases filled with everyday essentials year round. Check out the video of our first Packing w/ Purpose and see how we exceeded our goal for teens aging out of the foster care system here in Tampa and other parts of Florida.

Testimonials

“

I just want to take this time to give thanks to TKP for helping me in my time of need. I was really in a bad place in my life and the KP stepped without any hesitation, and I am truly thankful for that. God bless and continue to be a blessing to others as you all were to me.

In life we all experience moments where we secretly desire more, dream of a life that may not exist, and even think of the possibility of what our world would be like if we all pooled our resources together. That's where the Knighten Project comes in. KP gives us an opportunity to BE the Change in the World that We Wish to See. By partnering with KP, I am given multiple opportunities to anonymously make a difference in the lives of others with the goal of giving, loving and possibly restoring HOPE into the HOPEless.
