Donate to Support H.O.P.E.

H.O.P.E. is a Mid-South Peace and Justice Center-sponsored organization whose members are exclusively people have formerly or are currently experiencing homelessness. Over the past several months, members have been working diligently to develop the structure and process of our organization in order to better address the issues that face our communities. HOPE has also developed different projects to address and deconstruct specific dimensions of what is a dynamic problem that continues to affect so many in the Mid-South and beyond. For meeting times & dates: 901-300-0006.

As part of new outreach efforts, members of H.O.P.E. (Homeless Organizing for Power & Equality) will be working in teams to do targeted engagement with encampments and 'homeless-hotspots' across the city. Our members recently attended a training to learn the new tool for assessing the needs of Memphis/Shelby County's homeless population. We want to put together outreach packets as a way to help us build relationships with the men and women we are trying to help connect to services, and we could really use YOUR support!

We are also asking for donations of:

BUG SPRAY- If you haven't noticed, the Memphis mosquitoes are back...and when you don't have a place to be indoors, you can get eaten alive & a can of OFF!™ might be your best friend. We're gonna need a LOT!

BOTTLED WATER- (lots of it) -its hot out there! We will be going through CASES of bottled water this Summer.

CLEAN SOCKS- when you spend most of your day on your feet, a pair of clean socks can really make a difference. 

If you are able to donate any of these items, we are asking that you drop them off Mon - Fri, 9AM-5PM at the Mid-South Peace and Justice Center :: 3573 Southern Ave, 38111 :: (901) 725-4990
'Share' ...if you please!
