The Heart Gallery of Central Texas is made possible by
the time and talent of more than 45 renowned Central Texas
photographers who volunteered hundreds of hours to
photograph more than 100 children.
The goal of The Heart Gallery of Central Texas is to elicit support for
and interest in the lives of these children – and ultimately find each
child and sibling group a “forever family.” Many of the foster
children featured in the gallery are older or special needs children,
minorities, or members of a sibling group. All are considered
hard-to-place children. We plan to keep the Heart Gallery moving until
all of the children are adopted!
The Heart Gallery of Central Texas is a project of the
Adoption Coalition of Texas, a nonprofit organization whose funds come
from individual donors and community foundations. All funds used
to support The Heart Gallery of Central Texas are community funds,
either derived from direct sponsorships or from the Adoption Coalition
of Texas' general operating budget. No state funds are received
for this project, or any other Adoption Coalition of Texas project.
