STUART, Fla. — A well-known charity that houses foster kids and families at risk of abuse is expanding to the Treasure Coast. Place of Hope currently has foster homes in Boca Raton and Palm Beach Gardens. The charity is taking over the land from the Samaritan Center for Boys, a charity with a similar mission that has since fallen into despair. Place of Hope Founding CEO Charles Bender said each day 200 kids in this region are housed in foster care. He said the other cottages used to house children and families will begin being renovated and reopened shortly after.
