About Us
We are an action-oriented organization that seeks to honor Jesus in everything we do. The love of Jesus is the inspiration for our commitment to help bereaved families in their greatest time of need.
And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds
Hebrews 10:24
Who We Are
Tate Benjamin Foundation
Our story is simple…we are a group of friends and family that experienced the beauty of God’s design for community through the loss of a sweet baby named Tate Benjamin Stewart. The undeniable and contagious love, care, and fellowship from this body of Christ-followers in the Tampa Bay area set the wheels in motion for more action through creation of our Foundation.
What if everyone loved their neighbors like this? Even worse, what if no one loved their neighbors like this…even through tragedy? Our aim at Tate Benjamin Foundation is to strike a beautiful balance of community by:
- Sharing the love of Jesus through action
- Helping to sustain those who are grieving
- Providing tangible, bite-sized opportunities to serve others in need
Vision
To see families changed, hearts mended, and different people groups come together in service to Jesus Christ. Our ministry formally began in 2022 serving families in the Tampa Bay area. Our vision is to reach more people in need – those in need of receiving help and those in need of a mission to provide help.
Mission
Spurred by the love of Jesus, Tate Benjamin Foundation is a nonprofit charged with helping families navigate the loss of a newborn baby.
