Description:
Thank you for your interest in Warehouse of Hope. We appreciate the opportunity to share our vision with you.
Warehouse of Hope began in January 1995 with a dream from Founders Craig and Becky Parson to meet the needs of families who were unable to fulfill the most basic necessities of survival. At that time the effort was to acquire and deliver groceries and supplies to a few needy families. The organization soon found itself benefiting from the network of referral sources such as D.F.A.C.S., local shelters and support efforts and positive word of mouth. As the number of families requiring assistance grew and the needs expanded, resources became scarce. Through an extensive effort and effective cooperation, the Warehouse of Hope now benefits from partnerships with Organizations such as Feed the Children and Operation Blessing to acquire much needed food and supplies. Through time, effectively meeting needs and building relationships, the Warehouse of Hope has experienced tremendous growth. We currently distribute on average 6000 grocery bags full of food and supplies per month. Additionally we are assisting roughly 350 families monthly with the ability to meet their needs for clothing through our clothing distribution office. All of this is made possible with the help of our Ministry Partners and supporters.
The Warehouse of Hope also has a desire and vision to expand the services we offer in the near future to include, Mentoring, English as a Second Language and other Adult education training offerings, Medical Care, Optical Care, Dental Care, Community Care, Back to School assistance, Thanksgiving Meal provision, Christmas Store for Children, Warehouse on Wheels to provide on site services, Extended Benevolence Services, a Working Internship Program and ongoing future Expansion.
Throughout this incredible journey we as an organization have become acutely aware of how valuable and rewarding building quality relationships and partnerships can be. We appreciate the opportunity to extend our hand of cooperation to you. We look forward to all that the future will bring and we honor our responsibility to fulfill our role in fostering a mutually beneficial relationship for both parties.
Please let us know if you would like any more information about our organization or if we can offer you any assistance in your efforts.
