KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 10, 2025 /Standard Newswire/ -- CarePortal, a care-sharing technology that drives action for local children and families in crisis, announces it has served over 500,000 children and caregivers in crisis through the platform’s Care-Sharing™ technology.
“Half a million people served isn’t just a number,” said Adrien Lewis, Founder and President of CarePortal. “It’s half a million stories—of dignity restored, of isolation interrupted, of hope reignited. It’s evidence of what’s possible when people motivated by love are put in position to serve.”
What began as a simple idea—that neighbors would help if they only knew how—has grown into a nationwide movement of churches, caseworkers, businesses, and everyday people stepping in to see and serve their most vulnerable neighbors. From providing essential items and home repairs to preventing family separation and supporting grandparents raising grandchildren, each request met represents not just a physical need fulfilled, but an opportunity for a meaningful connection that turns help into hope.
At the heart of CarePortal’s growth is a vision to mainstream Care-Sharing: using simple, secure technology to connect vetted needs from child-serving professionals with real-time responses from nearby community members. Caseworkers identify needs, post them in the system, and those close by are notified and empowered to respond—often within hours.
Currently active in 38 states and thousands of communities, CarePortal has facilitated more than 136,000 unique requests being met—keeping children out of foster care, strengthening biological families, supporting kinship caregivers, and uplifting vulnerable youth.
“Connection changes everything,” Lewis continued. “It changes the story for a child on the brink. It gives a single mom the community she longs for. And it shows the world that loving your neighbor isn't something the Church just talks about—it’s something we do.”
Looking ahead, CarePortal is committed to scaling the Care-Sharing movement by fostering innovation, building partnerships, and equipping communities to respond with courage and compassion.
One request at a time, Care-Sharing is proving what’s possible when technology serves a greater mission—transforming moments of help into a movement of hope.
