Philip and Tiffany Rivers are truly a story of faith and determination.  Both raised in Decatur Alabama, Philip and Tiffany met in grade school and married in Philip's second year of college at NC State.  From the inception of their relationship they made their faith the center and foundation.  Family, faith, and football is a phrase commonly used to describe Philip.

Together Philip and Tiffany have established the Rivers of Hope Foundation with the mission to help unwanted, abandoned and orphaned children find permanent loving homes. They pray that these children may find their own sense of self-worth and that future and current parents be open to life regardless of the situation. 

Currently Philip and Tiffany live in San Diego, CA with their six children. They are reminded daily of how important a family unit is and continue to welcome and embrace all God has in store for them and thank God for their many blessings. 

They also know that there are over 510,000 children in the U.S. foster care system right now; 129,000 of these children are available for adoption today. These unwanted children face long term foster care and years of neglect. Every year, 20% of children exit foster care at age 18 without an adoptive family.  Statistically, these 18 year olds have little hope of finding their way out of the welfare 'system'.  

The Rivers of Hope Foundation was formed to give hope.  Hope for kids yet born, those 'stuck' in the foster care system, and hope for qualified couples waiting to be parents.  It is our intention to bring hope, information and other means necessary to bring children into a family unit.... some for the very first time.
