Being a vibrant mission is not just about caring for the homeless in our city, it's about serving our friends who support our ministry. One of the ways we do this is by sharing the wonderful things that are happening in our shelters to encourage and prepare our clients for re-entering society, with obtainable goals for self-sufficiency.
As you read the blogs written by our staff and guest bloggers, your heart will be touched by the stories about life in the shelters and the experiences of the men, women and children living in them. You will find ways to connect that meet your charitable ideals and many opportunities to deepen your involvement with Star of Hope Mission.
Marilyn FountainAs Director of Community Relations at Star of Hope, I have the unique privilege of being part of the dichotomy that exists for the hundreds of homeless men, women, and children who dwell in our shelters. Every day, as I work on their behalf, I see the hurt and devastation that comes with the losses they’ve experienced. But, on the other hand, I get to link arms with people in the community – people from all walks of life – who give of themselves and their treasure, in support of our ministry.
It is their generosity that makes it possible for Star of Hope to offer the services that help clients regroup and focus on rebuilding their lives. Without a doubt, I am blessed to be here and immensely grateful that the Lord saw fit to bring me across the country, all the way from Pennsylvania, to this Mission, for this privilege, and this purpose.
