Review for Operation Hope of Fairfield Inc, Fairfield, CT, USA
Operation Hope was born 25 years ago, in a simple effort to give a few homeless men a place to sleep on cold nights. Since then, while the basic mission is unchanged, the reach of the organization has grown dramatically, to include not only a mens shelter, but one for women, families, a soup kitchen, and housing and training programs that seek to attack the causes, not just the symptoms, of people in need. Getting people back on their feet and working and having them NOT need the help is the goal.
Operation Hope is a beacon of light in our community, both to those in need and to volunteers, students and others who find joy in participating in this worthy endeavor. The staff of Operation Hope has boundless energy for work, assistance and ideas, while all eyes remain on the goal of ending the need to have this organization at all.
