Mission:
To nurture the well-being, independence, and faith of women and their children by providing shelter, services and support.
Service:
Earlier this year, Hope House opened its doors and began to fill a vital need in our area: to provide shelter, services and support that women and their children need to make a new start when for whatever reason, they cannot go home or have no home. Before Hope House, women with children had to run to Charlotte to find shelter and a place to get back on their feet. Their goal is to help residents become independent adults and responsible, self-sufficient parents.
Volunteer Needs:
There are a multitude of volunteer needs. Some of these include: transportation and errands, childcare, literacy training, computer training, resume-writing skills, cooking classes, handyman services, gardening and yard work, and administrative office assistance.
Financial Donation:
For the 2009 calendar year, DUMC has pledged $2,000.
