Through the persistence of our officers, board of directors and colleagues, Speak Up For Children, Inc. has been fortunate to receive contributions to finance scholarships/grants since our inception in 2012. Times Oil and other Lincoln County companies, churches, families, memberships, grants from The Lincoln County Community Foundation, and fundraisers like the Holiday Tour of Homes have allowed our organization to “fill the gaps” that exist in funding resources for foster children. Our continuing goal is to provide hope and a sense of normalcy in the disrupted lives of these children.
