Hope's Front Door provides to those who still struggle!

In moments of crisis, Hope's Front Door is a place community members turn to for help. This summer some are still struggling with uncertainty as a result of the fluctuating costs of goods and services.

In the last 12 months, they have seen an increased number of senior citizens requesting help, whether it be basic need items or through their education programs. With community support, they have been able to provide over $26,000 in basic essentials to area seniors and an additional $19,000 in educational and resource services to help them maintain their households.

"I wanted to thank Hope's Front Door and their supporters for helping me receive funds to pay my light bill and providing a gas voucher for my car so that I can get to my doctor's appointment. It seems like there was one thing after another. I had some expected bills and then had to deal with an increase in the cost for electricity, food and gas. I appreciate you all for helping me." Rhonda, who is 71 years old.

"I have limited income. It has been a challenge with costs of things I need, like food, being higher than it was before. I just completed my first session with banker in the financial skill-building program. I already feel as if I can take control. I am taking the first steps to creating a new budget and understanding my finances.-Sharon, who is 76 years old.

Hope's Front Door thanks their community partners and donors! They are helping area senior citizens access basic need items and the resources to remain independent and in their homes!

Help them out with the new 10,000 challenge. From now until, August 31st, every dollar you give is doubled up to 10,000. Make twice the impact on the lives of others this summer.
