HOPE

Lift Your Gaze is a community-based nonprofit that 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.

Lift Your Gaze's program has been approved for all 84K Florida prison inmates. The demand for Lift Your Gaze's curriculum in state prisons is exploding.  Lift Your Gaze is in several county jails across the country.

Every $20 donated saves one life. Select "Books for Inmates" from the drop-down on our giving page to donate to this program.
