The Saint Francis 2026 Impact Report is now available for viewing online at www.saintfrancisministries.org/annual-reports.
This year’s report, Founded in Healing, Forward in Hope, honors our 80th anniversary year and the roots of Saint Francis Ministries while looking ahead to the lives and communities we have yet to reach. It’s a chance to reflect on where we’ve been and to reaffirm our commitment to where we’re going.
Since our founding more than eight decades ago by Fr. Bob Mize Jr., our mission has remained constant: providing healing and hope to children and families. That mission has guided every program we’ve built, every partnership we’ve formed, and every family we’ve had the privilege to serve.
Today, nearly 8,000 individuals across six states benefit from services designed to keep families together, help children find safe and permanent homes, and empower people to build stronger futures. Behind every one of those numbers is a story that could not happen without you as a representative of SFM: a parent given the tools to stay with their children, a young person finding stability in a forever home, an individual discovering the confidence to shape their own path forward.
None of this work happens alone; our partners, donors, and friends make it possible.
Check out the full 2026 Impact Report and see the difference we’re making together, rooted in healing and moving forward in hope.
