In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Hilary Patterson, the passionate and dedicated leader of Borrowed Hearts Owensboro—a nonprofit organization with a mission to care for and support children in foster care and the families who love them. Hilary shares the story behind Borrowed Hearts, how it began, and the powerful ways it's meeting the tangible and emotional needs of foster families throughout Daviess County and beyond.
From clothing closets and hygiene kits to birthday bags and emergency resources, Hilary unpacks how Borrowed Hearts is standing in the gap with compassion, dignity, and practical love. But more than the programs and partnerships, this conversation dives into the heart behind the mission—what drives Hilary, the stories that keep her going, and the faith that fuels her purpose.
Whether you’re a foster parent, someone considering getting involved, or simply looking for hope in the hard places of life, Hilary’s story will challenge and encourage you. Tune in and discover how small acts of love—when multiplied—can transform a community.
