I was homeless 3 times in a period of 12 years, and then 13 years ago became a homeowner after Hayden Homes offered an interest free home to someone in our community of Walla Walla Washington. Starting Hope Heals saved my life. I wanted to be the person that I needed when I was homeless. I needed help with my basic needs and decided to help pay it forward to others in need. After people secure housing we help them with dishes, silverware, pots and pans, cleaning supplies, bedding, and clothes.
