The support of our community brings hope to homeless women.
Homelessness is a growing problem here in our Huntersville, North Carolina community. Your donations, financial contributions, and volunteer time are needed more than ever to help the women and women with children we serve have a place to live and figure out where to go and what to do next. Together, we can solve this problem, but the backing of our community is invaluable in supporting our mission.
We appreciate the community support of other caring organizations in our area. For example, we proudly work with The Ada Jenkins Center to provide case management services, career support, life skills training, and affordable housing options to the women who come and live at our housing center.
On an individual basis, there are many ways you can support our mission and cause to end homelessness in our community. We appreciate monetary donations of any amount as well as the donation of your time and talents. Our strong team of volunteers helps us keep our housing center open 24/7 and provide important services the women who turn to us so desperately need.
As a community, we can come together and help women experiencing homelessness because of job loss, divorce, medical issues, and other situations out of their control. Your support means the world to us and the women we serve – contact us today to find out more about our community support initiatives and how you can help.
Volunteer Opportunities
Hope House is run 24/7 by a dynamic team of volunteers who partner with a House Manager. Volunteers are responsible women, age 18 or older, who manage the house during their desired shifts(s). All volunteers participate in an orientation after filling out an application and undergoing a general background check. While not required, volunteers are also encouraged to share their special skills, hobbies, or interests during their time at the home.
All prospective new Volunteers are required to submit an application and attend a New Volunteer Orientation. Hope House invites you to attend an Orientation session to learn about the exciting ways you and your organization can help support the mission of helping woman and children experiencing situational homelessness in the Lake Norman area.
