About

At Bethel-Mansfield Foundation, we pride ourselves on being transparent, honest, and integral to the advancement and equitable treatment of children worldwide.

Bethel-Mansfield Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focused on child safety, success, and health equity.

 

We serve children in economically distressed communities by providing them with the necessary school supplies, including laundry detergent and socks, raising awareness of child abuse through social advertising campaigns, and mobilizing donations to contribute to child health disparities.

 

By partnering with local organizations, institutions, and governmental institutions, we can determine needs and discover creative and resourceful ways to address them.

Behind the Name

Bethel-Mansfield Foundation is a name that has meaning. 

Bethel comes from a local church based in Huntsville, Texas who have worked tirelessly in the local area to provide clothing, shelter, food, and community to those who need it most. For over 50 years, they have been a staple and resource for individuals who did not have much to live on.

​

Mansfield is a major street in the Acres Homes community of Houston, Texas, a historic district and super-neighborhood of the City of Houston. 

​

Bethel-Mansfield Foundation was founded in Acres Homes and currently serves the community of children. 

Theory of Change

Our singular purpose is to create a community of child advocates. One where responsible and courageous individuals will stop at nothing to protect children, even those outside of their own families. One where we are accountable to each other and pursue justice at all costs. â€‹

​In conjunction with our mission, vision, and guiding principles, we purpose ourselves to connect with local organization, individuals, and governmental entities to institute community-based plans that will eliminate child abuse, especially the egregious act of child sexual abuse, raise funds to provide for educational expenses, and mobilize donations to host and partner with health practitioners to run pediatric clinical outreach missions both here in the States and abroad.
