All I can say is I have read about them very carefully, emailed and written snail mail back and forth with them more than once, and have only seen the most amazing, incredibly hard working and dedicated group of people who serve those who need it most.
I have no connection to Hope House other than I give money regularly and I stand by these people. In fact, they are not even in my town. I live about an hour drive away in a different town, but have felt very drawn to support these good people. They invited me to have lunch with them so I can meet them and see the facilities for myself, and I expect to do so this summer.
I am very tired and cannot stay writing anymore now, but just know that I am definitely no dummy and know some things about people and organizations. Hope House is committed to the people who need them, and to the teachngs and values received from our Lord Jesus. They work with individuals, families, men, women, kids. Their focus is to help people get back into a productive, self-sufficient, honest, addiction free life. I cannot say enough good about them. I will continue to support them with cash for as long as I can - then I hope to volunteer time in whatever way they can use me. I am a systems analyst, so if they can't use me for that I will sweep their floors and clean their bathrooms if they would like.
