To say you’re making a difference is an understatement. You’re changing lives.

House of Hope can help you empower single mothers and give them and their children a chance at self-sufficiency. Break the cycle of poverty and homelessness by providing:

A Home


The effects of homelessness on children are devastating—they often suffer physical, psychological and emotional damage. However, research shows these effects can be reversed. Be part of the solution.

A Transformation


Raising children is hard enough with two incomes and a village. Yet, these women often come to House of Hope without either, and are still expected to raise their children and pay the bills.

A Community


Every woman is expected to obtain a degree or employment to work towards independence—there is no coasting. We have high expectations because we know that these women are capable.

House of Hope is tried, tested, and proven with an 93% success rate.

It is really hard, not having anyone. I like the environment here with you guys. It's like we're a family.

"Emma"

We believe in respect, encouragement and compassion.
