Founded in 1838, St. Mary’s Home serves as the first and oldest residential treatment facility for children in Alabama.  Founded as an orphanage, St. Mary’s Home continues to care for children who have been abused, abandoned or neglected by their families. 

St. Mary’s Home has offered shelter and nurturing care to children who had and still have nowhere else to turn for help.  Like the original 3 orphans who moved into St. Mary’s Home on December 26, 1838, our children continue to rely on the kindness of others, not only to meet their daily needs but to provide them with the loving guidance to heal and to grow into productive members of our community.  With your help, St. Mary’s Home can provide a miracle in the form of a safe place for children to live that is free from abuse.

Please join us in the rewarding journey of saving these children, our children, and we will not only change their lives now but will provide them with the skills for a limitless, abuse free future.

YOU have the POWER to CHANGE the WORLD –
One Child at a Time

God Bless You.
