Nationally, 118,000 children will never return home, but don't yet have the security of an adoptive family. These children are of all ages, racial and ethnic backgrounds, and have varying needs. Many have brothers and sisters they want and need to be adopted with. Some have been waiting for years to be adopted. Of all their differences, they all have one common thread: the need of a loving, permanent family.

The Heart Gallery of Sarasota, Inc., was established in 2005 to bring our own community's children into the light. Our dedicated group of volunteers consists of members of the Safe Children Coalition, the Bay Professional Photographers Association, and many others who want nothing more than to bring these wonderful kids to our community’s attention through art.

Each one of these foster kids is a work of art in themselves. The Heart Gallery of Sarasota brings these works of art out for our community and the world to appreciate.
