Recognizing the immense suffering of children and teens (5 to 18 years old) that have lost parents and
guardians and those facing poverty and critical vulnerability;
Understanding that every child is a special gift from the Almighty God with his/her God-given potential to
fulfill regardless of the social, cultural, economic, or religious backgrounds;
Witnessing how daily grieving and vulnerable children and teens live and face harsh realities of life and
poverty which lead to illiteracy, school dropout, desperation to achieve their dreams, and a lack of support
to help them heal and rebuild their hopes and aspirations for a better future;
Believing that, every child has inherent worth and a God-given potential waiting to be fulfilled and; that
we live in a world that often overlooks their pain, we are called to be a beacon of hope, reflecting the
compassionate love of Christ to those who need it most;
Therefore, with a profound commitment to serving our community and motivated by the call to love, mercy
and compassion to one another, we have decided unanimously this Tuesday, January 6th of the year 2026
to initiate and found a non-profit, non-partisan and non-denominational community-based organization
which shall be known as “Renewed Hope for Children and Teens”, “REHOCT in acronym.”
The organization created is for the benefit of the grieving and vulnerable children and teens in order to find
sustainable solutions to their problems so that they can heal, learn, and grow, transforming their sorrow into
strength and their vulnerability into resilience. Through our collective efforts, we seek to renew their hope
and guide them toward a life of purpose and fulfillment of their God-given potential. Together, we will
cultivate a supportive network that encourages personal growth and meaningful connections.
