Caiden’s Hope has been named as a Top-Rated Nonprofit in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 by Great NonProfits.com.

To learn more about Caiden’s Hope Foundation, visit www. caidenshope.org. Caiden’s Hope Foundation can also be found at www.facebook.com/caidenshope www.twitter.com/ caidenshope and www.tsu.co/caidenshope. Five years ago a young mother in California was told by hospital medical staff that her new son Caiden wouldn’t live to see his two-month birthday. God had different plans.

Imagine your baby has just been born and doctors transport him to a specialty hospital 90 miles from home. You didn’t even get a chance to hold him. Your world has just turned upside down. This is where Caiden’s Hope Foundation makes a difference.

Caiden’s Hope Foundation is a 501(c)3 charitable organization headquartered in The Woodlands, Texas and supports parents with a premature infant hospitalized in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). The mission is to provide parents with free hotels and free prepaid gas cards enabling them to personally care for their child. Knowing how hard it is to have a child staying in a hospital, no matter the age, so Caiden's Hope helps parents who may not be able to personally care for their child because of work and other obligations.

Caiden’s Hope Foundation was formed by people who had nothing but an idea, the desire to help other families, and faith. With Caiden’s grandparents in California and a host of friends in Texas, a group of people who knew the struggles of having a baby in the NICU came together, pooled their resources, and started churning ideas to help people. Most of all, they believed.

Building a charity isn’t all that easy, though. It took many months of research and planning, and even more help from friends who donated to help the cause. It took several phone calls and conversations, but in October 2010, Caiden’s Hope 8 Get out the Vote!
