About Us

The Heart of Tabitha Foundation
 is a Maryland 501(c)(3) tax exempt program dedicated to providing young women experiencing economic and/or situational difficulties with essentials, education, and wellness resources.

Donate

Going without essentials hurts.
They break concentration and make the future seem impossible. Giving clothes, school supplies, financial contributions and necessities are GREAT.

Educate

“If you teach a man to fish...”
Education gives everyone the tools they need to succeed. Constantly check our EVENTS page for the latest offerings from  us and other organizations.

Volunteer

Everyone has something to offer; whether it is time, a skill, a caring heart and/or listening ear. Montgomery County school students can earn training SSL hours.

Keep Up With The
​Heart of Tabitha Foundation!
