Hope Builds Life's Mission

Revitalizing American Communities through Local Reinvestment

Small Business and Economic Development

We’re passionate about supporting our local small businesses and fostering economic development in our community. Whether it’s through patronage, advocacy, or collaboration, we believe in building a strong foundation for growth and prosperity.

Join us in championing our neighborhood’s entrepreneurs and initiatives for a brighter future together!

Helping Foster Kids Become Adults

At 18 years of age, foster children are emancipated from the system as legal adults, often without the necessary skills to thrive independently. Facing limited resources and lacking a robust professional toolbox, Hope Builds Life prioritizes the development of crucial life skills and facilitates opportunities through our dedicated partners.

With our support, foster children receive assistance in job preparation, securing housing, accessing apprenticeships, enrolling in college, and accessing other vital resources. Our aim is to level the playing field and provide them with equal opportunities, akin to those afforded to individuals from traditional family backgrounds.

Play to Thrive

The program Hope Builds Life provides private music lessons to disadvantaged youth from 10 to 18 years of age. Through our strategic partnership with Sage Music, an established, high-end music education facility, we provide funding for  lessons to foster talent for those without opportunity.

This project is lovingly named Play to Thrive.

Scholarships and Apprenticeships.

Hope Builds Life is committed to investing in the next generation by supporting trade skills and apprenticeships. We recognize the importance of these paths for career success, yet they often come with significant financial barriers.

That’s why we’re dedicated to easing the financial burden by providing assistance for certifications, tools, and other resources necessary to thrive in trades careers. Together with our partners, we empower individuals to pursue fulfilling careers in the skilled trades, ensuring they have the support needed to succeed.

Veteran Mental Health

Hope Builds Life is committed to providing essential support to veterans within our communities, recognizing their invaluable service and the challenges they may face upon returning home.

We believe in the strength of community collaboration to make a meaningful impact in their lives. Through innovative technological solutions, we aim to create comprehensive support systems that cater to their specific needs, ensuring they receive the assistance necessary for a successful transition and integration back into civilian life.

Our efforts extend beyond conventional methods, aiming to foster a supportive environment where veterans can thrive and access the resources they deserve.
