    YOU made it possible to provide thousands of backpacks, bikes, clothing, and essentials, reaching group homes and foster families, in our local communities.

  • Joy Delivered

    YOU supported the collection and delivery of 1,200+ holiday gifts for foster youth last season, ensuring children in care felt included, celebrated, and remembered.

About Us

  • Branching Out has truly been a light for our family. Even before our child’s autism diagnosis, their events were always welcoming, safe, and sensory-friendly—and they always remembered us by name.

    Holly A. and Family

  • Our family has attended several Branching Out/Good Works Project events and at each one, we have felt welcomed and loved into a community where we feel we truly belong. When our large family, with two kids with special needs on top of it, goes to events in the community, we normally feel we are in the way and the events aren’t necessarily catered to kids with our children’s unique needs. All that is different when we attend Branching Out/Good Works Project events because we are met with smiling faces, special accommodations, and a sense of family. We’ve been able to experience Halloween fun and movies and more, which we wouldn’t have otherwise been able to do. We’ve also been able to meet other families and connect with people who understand our lifestyle, wins, and struggles and can celebrate with us, and share wisdom and support. We are so grateful for this amazing community and the hard work so many people put in to make it what it is!

  • Branching Out has been so supportive and wonderful to me. Cherrie has been a loving and incredible support to my older daughter and has been a constant presence in my younger daughter's life.
