About BUILDING FAMILIES FOR TOMORROW INC

BUILDING FAMILIES FOR TOMORROW INC (Tax ID/EIN 61-1632761) is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit headquartered in McKinney, Texas that operates a residential and reintegration program in Kitale, Kenya focused on women who have been incarcerated and the children affected by maternal incarceration. The organization provides safe childcare and education for children while mothers are incarcerated, partners with Kenyan prisons to identify program candidates, and delivers vocational training, business skills, counseling, and step-down transitional support to enable family reunification and sustainable independence. In recent years BFFT has documented measurable program growth (program reports and organizational newsletters), completed infrastructure to host mission teams and interns, and run annual fundraising events that directly funded program scale-up and expanded prison partnerships.
