WAYS TO GIVE
Your contributions, no matter how large or small, will help families to get back on their feet.
DONATE IN HONOR OF
Donating in honor of someone is a celebration of their significance to us. This could be in honor of a loved one or to acknowledge the meaningful contributions someone has mad to HFC.
DONATE ONLINE
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. Simply click on the “donate” button. Your support is appreciated!
DONATE BOOKS
Help us fill the shelves of our newly opened Reading Resource Center with books for our children. Your donation of $25 will allow us to purchase 3 NEW grade level specific books from the Accelerated Reading Program, which is used in Indian River County schools.
WE NEED YOUR HELP
Currently, there are over 2,543 people in our community who cannot afford safe and adequate shelter. Of those, over 690 are children. Given the current economic conditions, we fear that number will steadily grow.
Our facility is the largest of its kind on the Treasure Coast. The The Hope For Families Center enables our clients to re-establish self-sufficiency through structured programs and linkages to community health and human services. Adult residents are required to find jobs within two weeks and save 75% of their income. Zero tolerance for alcohol and drugs is strictly enforced.
- Your donation of $231 gives one week of shelter, food, and help for one client
- Your donation of $990 gives a client of months’ worth of support
- Your donation of $6,900 gives the average client enough support to make it on his own
