Grand Love is on a mission to raise awareness of Grandparents who are raising their grandchildren and doing so on a limited or fixed income. These grandparents have stepped up to keep their grandchildren out of the foster care system, often while living on social security. While they can provide housing and basic necessities, there is no money for unexpected expenses such as school activities, sports, summer camps, school clothing or supplies, and school clubs or groups. Grand Love aims to make a difference in the lives of these grandchildren and their grandparents.

OUR NEED

There are currently over 300,000 grandparents raising their grandchildren in Texas, with 40% living below the poverty line. The need for support has increased significantly over the past two years, and there are few nonprofits or outside resources addressing this need. Now more than ever, your financial support is critical to enabling Grand Love to assist these grandparents financially, mentally, and spiritually as they navigate parenting for a second time.

Mission

Grand Love exists to support and uplift grandparents who are raising their grandchildren. We provide financial relief, emotional encouragement, and spiritual community to help these unsung heroes navigate the challenges of parenting a second time. Through advocacy, outreach, and practical assistance, we are committed to strengthening grandfamilies and ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive in a home built on love, resilience, and sacrifice.

Needs

There are currently over 300,000 Grandprents raising Grandchildren in the State of Texas. Over 60,000 of these grandparents live below the poverty line and many of these are on fixed incomes and struggle financially to provide for their grandchildren. At Grand Love we have developed the following programs to assist these grandparents and give these children opportunities that they otherwise would not have. To fund these programs, we need your help.

Grand Summers- offers scholarships for children to attend transformative summer camps that build confidence, social skills, and spiritual growth.

Grand Arts- opens doors to music, dance, theater, and visual arts for those who might not otherwise afford such enrichment.

Grand Love Wish Tree- helps brighten the holidays for grandchildren being raised by grandparents. Each tag on the tree represents a special wish or need. Community members can select a tag and make a direct impact by fulfilling that wish—spreading love and support to families who need it most.

Backpacks With Love- provides school backpacks filled with essential supplies to grandchildren being raised by grandparents. Each backpack helps a child start the school year confident and prepared—easing the financial burden on caregivers and showing families they’re not alone.

Grand Scholarships- provide two-year awards to local community colleges, giving grandchildren a pathway to higher education.

Grand Assistance- helps meet urgent everyday needs such as clothing, haircuts, school supplies, and access to dental and vision care—necessities that often go unmet in grandfamily households struggling on fixed incomes.
