I Want to Help

Your contributions go directly to helping homeless families regain stability and rebuild their lives.

Every Family Deserves The Opportunity To Thrive

Our Capital Campaign goals are to:

  • Increase the size of our shelter which doubles the number of families we can help.
  • Help working-class families. 100+ families are on our waiting-list.

The Hope for Families Center is a structured program that promotes stability, dignity, and self-reliance by teaching homeless families the habits and routines they need to thrive.

No Family Chooses Homelessness for Their Children

The roots of homelessness go deeper than just economics. Many families that seek help at The Hope for Families Center may have deep emotional wounds and inadequate life skills, often due to difficult upbringing or severe trauma.

 

Trusting relationships and a healthy community are necessary to address the root causes of homelessness successfully. That is why every service The Hope for Families Center offers, helps to develop relationships and draw people into a healthy community.

It costs us $70 per day, $500 per week and $2000 per month to house, feed, counsel, and support a person toward self-sufficiency. If the average person stays three months, it will take about $6,000 to get them back on their feet. The Hope For Families Center has established a safe and convenient way to accept on-line donations.
