Show Hope, a Christian non-profit organization that allows the stability for orphans in time of need is celebrating their ten year anniversary.

Started in 2003, founders Steven Curtis Chapman and wife, Mary Beth, have made it possible for orphans to have a place to stay during the adoption process, as well as, get the medical attention necessary for  life-saving procedures for special needs orphans.

The organization was originally called "Shaohannah's Hope" after their first adopted daughter and was made ultimately for the purpose of seeing children go to families for forever.

Yet, with  adoption costs being so high, the eligibility of parents were slim. So what did the Chapmans do? They designed an organization that evolves around three distinct things: adoption aid, orphan care, and by getting involved.

Adoption Aid provides housing for the orphans with loving families and assists the adoptive couples with  actual adoption grants.

Orphan care is actually confronting the orphans welfare spiritually, emotionally, and physically. By doing so, the organization knows what the ideal family would be for that certain orphan.

The last step that this organization runs through is physically getting involved with the process. Show Hope mobilizes individuals and communities to care for these orphans through the Adoption Aid and Orphan care programs. 

     With over 2,000 grants given to help put orphans in a good home, and over a million dollars going out in grants a year, Show Hope is proudly celebrating the ten years of missionary work. After 2009, when the name was changed to 'Show Hope', the organization has seen an overwhelmingly large boost in the growth of the organization.

From having a six-story caring facility in China equipped with all the necessary means of any medical treatment and having set up their own adoption funds, Show Hope continues to influence the world.

Show Hope is celebrating their 10 year anniversary in Nashville, TN on Sunday May 26 at Lipscomb University's Allen Arena. The 10 year celebration will consist of Christian artists as Casting Crowns, Audio Adrenaline, Laura Story, and more. 

There will be six artists performing during the celebration, as well as multiple food venues catering to the special event. The children will have multiple activities to partake in including inflatable bouncy gyms, musical performances by Miss Patty Cake, and getting pictures taken with the Veggie Tales, Tomato and Cucumber.

To attend the show, the tickets must be bought from the Lipscomb Allen Arena box office by calling 615-966-7075. For more information on Show Hope and donating to the organization please their website.
