Homelessness can happen to anyone. Women with children are particularly vulnerable to this struggle. After a job loss, major illness, change in family structure, or other life difficulties, many find themselves without a safe and stable place to call home.

We make hope happen with our transitional housing communities.

At Hope House Foundation, we help women whose lives have been turned upside down by situations out of their control. We provide housing and support services for single, unaccompanied women and women with children experiencing situational homelessness in a pleasant congregate living environment. We encourage transformative life choices and help women from all backgrounds, age groups, and walks of life.

What Our Guests Say...

Back when I was leaving Hope House, you said I was ready for my wings to fly. I trusted you and flew off. You were right…thank you for the support you gave. Hope House is not forgotten. It runs through my veins and pushes me harder than anything. The girls and staff at Hope House are always in my prayers

Janiece, Former Hope House Resident

Before coming to Hope House, I felt overwhelmed and unsure of how I would provide a stable future for my children. I was working hard, but it never seemed like enough to get ahead. I felt stuck. Hope House Foundation gave me more than just a safe place to stay—it gave me a fresh start. Through their support, I found stable employment, learned how to manage my finances, and began to believe in myself again. The staff didn’t just help me—they walked beside me every step of the way. Today, I have a plan, a purpose, and a renewed sense of hope. My children see a different version of me—strong, confident, and moving forward. Hope House didn’t just change my circumstances… it changed my life.

Whether I am helping watch the children, delivering meals, or supporting organization projects, every task feels meaningful! It’s inspiring to see how much impact for the families at the Hope House Foundation volunteers can make in creating a safe, stable, welcoming space. I am proud to serve on a team of dedicated volunteers who help make hope happen!

This is a story of HOPE that begins and ends with Joy. Our first Hope to Home family transitioned into the Joy Cottage Christmas Eve of 2021. She arrived with the clothes on her back with her daughter terrified and unprepared for the journey and opportunity ahead. For the past several months they had been living in their car that Mom referred to as “camping.” We felt like the Inn Keepers welcoming her home to a safe and clean stable.

In the stillness of the night when all was calm she courageously opened the door to Joy and caught her breath. She could never imagine that a community could already love her and appreciate her story so much so that her new home was clean and bright.

Today her season of transition is now complete. She has healed, grown and recovered all that was taken from her when she escaped an abusive relationship. Her employment is stable, her finances under control and her emotions have been repaired. She is ready for the season of preparedness and looking forward to her future. Her goal of owning her own home is months away and she is determined to keep “moving forward.” Her daughters no longer think about “camping” and have visions of what their new safe space will look like!

The story has a happy ending of Joy for this family and because of the support we have received from so many but especially Davidson United Methodist Church.

Our mission of giving hope and transforming lives happens one family at a time with deep intention and authenticity. I have the great privilege and honor to watch the transformation and I am in joyful anticipation for the next family who in partnership with Habitat will be the next good news story!
