Opportunities From: United Way of the Mid-South

Volunteer: Make Hope House Beautiful

Hope House's mission is to improve the quality of life for individuals affected by HIV and poverty. Located in the heart of midtown, three historic homes act as a safe haven to over 600 individuals (adults and children) affected by HIV. Adults come for social services including individual and group therapy, case management, a housing program. a food pantry and much more. Children are welcomed into our daycare services at 6 weeks and stay until they graduate preschool at 5 years old. 

Our project will be to clean and weed the flowerbeds in front and back of all three houses. It is crucial for us to keep our properties in top shape, not only for inspection purposes but also so that they remain a safe and welcoming environment for our children and adults. As a small staff, it is difficult for us to find the time and resources to tackle this project. Because of COVID-19, we are not allowing volunteers inside of our building. Each group will need to bring their own materials including water. We would love for you to join us and help us clean up our gardens! With your help, we can keep making Hope House look like home!
