Fundraisers
Our goal at HOPE is to build awareness about food insecurity and children’s health issues right here in our own backyard, and the resources needed to help our people eat. Events are a large part of community engagement, as well as fundraising. Bringing businesses, individuals and clubs together is essential to making true impact and lasting change. This is why we are grateful for successful annual events and pop-ups to help fund our program initiatives.
