HOPE

Lift Your Gaze is a community-based nonprofit, which exists to provide HOPE to the traumatized, especially but not limited to the incarcerated.

Unfortunately, 70% of Americans experience trauma in their life; that's 223.4 million people. This suffering can be from a loss, cancer, post-trauma-stress disorder from serving our country, or from being incarcerated.

Whatever the cause, the ripple effects are too significant to be ignored. And the effects of unhealed trauma in our society are immeasurable. 


Despite life's atrocities, Lift Your Gaze's promise of providing HOPE remains strong. Whether it is from the words of one of our inspirational books in English or Spanish, the teaching of our trauma-healing curriculum to residents within the correctional facilities, or through personal mentoring with a sex trafficking, domestic violence, or cancer victim, we offer real-world solutions to life's challenges. 


We believe in and understand the power of a single seed of HOPE. 


Lift Your Gaze is a community-based nonprofit organization and a project through The New Horizons Foundations, a 501(c)(3) organization.

HOPE Initiatives


 Lift Your Gaze is a community-based nonprofit that exists to provide HOPE to the traumatized, especially the incarcerated.
Currently, we are raising $1.3M in tax-deductible donations for the following initiatives:
1. Matching Program Goal: DOUBLE YOUR GIVING! This initiative covers the translation, publication, printing, and shipping costs to translate our second trauma-healing book into Spanish to reach the 29% Spanish-speaking inmate population. Every dollar donated (up to $10K) is matched 100%! 
Select "Lift Your Gaze Spanish Translation" from the drop-down at the top of our giving page to donate to this program. 

2. MORE BOOKS!  
PRISONS GOAL $500K: Lift Your Gaze's program has been approved for all 84K Florida prison inmates. Our founder trained the Chaplains from Region Three at Florida Detention Centers on our Program. Now, the demand for Lift Your Gaze's curriculum in the Florida state prisons is exploding. Our goal is to roll out our program in phases. The first phase is to provide HOPE in the form of one book for 25,000 FL prison residents =  $500K. 
JAILS $500K: Lift Your Gaze is in several county jails across the country, with several located in Florida. These jails turn over 100% of their inmate population every 90 days. The total population of these facilities is over 10,000 inmates. We aim to provide our devo (in English or Spanish) to every inmate who requests a Bible. We anticipate we will need over 25,000 devotionals/year, which is $500K. 
Every $20 donated saves one life. WE NEED MONTHLY SPONSORS TO MEET THESE INITIATIVES. 
Select "Books for Inmates" from the drop-down at the top of our giving page to donate to this program. 

3. Capital Campaign $300K: WE ARE GROWING!  Many of you have asked, who pays your salaries? Lift Your Gaze is an organization fueled by volunteers that partners with other nonprofits. We are now at the stage where we need to provide salaries to our full-time staff and bring on a grant writer, marketing manager, and events director. WE ARE IN NEED OF MONTHLY SPONSORS TO MEET THIS INiTIATIVE. 
Select "Use Where Needed Most" from the drop-down at the top of our giving page to donate to this program. 

Lift Your Gaze is raising funds to continue to provide HOPE to the darkest areas of our society through our annual gala,  golf tournament, and online auction
