111Project

What 111Project does

111Project is an Oklahoma-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2011 to mobilize the local church as a partner in child welfare. The organization focuses on foster care prevention, foster family recruitment, and family support, working alongside churches, foster care agencies, non-profits, schools, and the Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OKDHS). Its primary offering is CarePortal, a connection technology platform added to the organization in 2015 that allows agency partners to submit vetted needs (e.g., beds, utility payments, diapers, rental assistance) and matches those requests with local churches and community responders. CarePortal launched in Tulsa County in January 2016 and expanded county-by-county until reaching all 77 Oklahoma counties in 2025, with Oklahoma becoming the first state in the nation to serve over 50,000 children through the platform.

The business model is donation- and grant-driven rather than commercial. Revenue streams include individual donations, church and corporate contributions, foundation grants (e.g., $180,000 from Arnall Community Fund at Oklahoma City Community Foundation), and corporate fundraising partnerships (e.g., Jiffy Trip's JT Cares campaign, which raised $27,000 in 2023). Services are provided free of charge to families, with no pricing tiers. The organization is governed by Executive Director Chris Campbell and operates through a regional manager structure (Western Director, Eastern Oklahoma Director, and multiple county-level regional managers) that supports church enrollment, agency onboarding, and community mobilization through monthly community gatherings and county launch events. As of 2025, the network includes 870 engaged churches, 134 agency partners, and reports serving 14,012 children in the year (a 17% increase over 2024) with a claimed $27.46M cumulative economic impact and a 500% return on funding ratio.

Others

• Focus on the Family: A national faith-based organization providing family support, parenting resources, and advocacy including foster care engagement. Not a direct operational peer but operates in the adjacent space of faith-based family strengthening and crisis support.

Broad incumbents

• KVC Health Systems: A child welfare and behavioral health nonprofit serving children and families across multiple states. The original CarePortal technology platform is associated with KVC, making them a foundational comparable in the underlying technology that 111Project operates.
• Catholic Charities USA: A national network of faith-based social service agencies providing foster care, adoption, family support, and crisis services. Comparable in faith-rooted child welfare and family preservation work, but operates at vastly greater scale across all 50 states.
• Bethany Christian Services: One of the largest faith-based child welfare and foster care agencies in the U.S., providing adoption, foster care, and family services nationwide. Comparable to 111Project in mission and faith-based approach but operates at much greater scale with broader service offerings.
• Boys Town: National child welfare nonprofit providing residential care, family services, and community-based programs for at-risk youth. Comparable in child welfare mission and family preservation focus but operates primarily as a direct service provider rather than a network mobilizer.

Direct peers

• Show Hope: A faith-based nonprofit focused on adoption and foster care, providing financial grants, education, and support for families. Comparable in faith-centered approach to mobilizing families for vulnerable children, with similar advocacy-driven community engagement model.
• Promise686: A faith-based nonprofit that mobilizes local churches to support foster and adoptive families through a church-centered care model. Highly comparable to 111Project's model of recruiting and equipping churches as the primary delivery mechanism for family support services.
• Together We Rise: A national nonprofit that supports foster children and foster families through fundraising, awareness, and direct services like the Bunk Bed Ministry (similar to BattleCreek Church's program). Operates a technology-enabled volunteer network to mobilize support for foster youth.
• CarePortal: CarePortal is the national connection technology platform that 111Project manages for Oklahoma. It operates in multiple states under different partner organizations, providing the same vetted-needs-to-churches model that 111Project uses locally. They are functionally the same platform with different regional operators.

Regional players

• Embracing Hope Initiative (Texas CarePortal): Other state-level CarePortal managing organizations that run the same platform in different geographies. Directly comparable in operational model, technology stack, and mission but operate in different regional markets rather than competing in Oklahoma.
