The road from here to home…

…is lined with partners who care!

I am delighted to share with you this 2021 Annual Report ! God has been gracious, and you have been faithful. As a result, many hearts were healed, lives transformed, and homes found. And that’s no small miracle in a year of continuing pandemic challenges that threatened to derail the progress of so many families. Because of your support, 287 precious families—more families than ever before—experienced victories that continuemoving them forward on their road home .

Your gifts enabled us to expand in two major ways. In January, we opened our fourth shelter, Casa de Alegria, designed to assist moms with children who are pursuing education as a way out of poverty. In December, we opened our new Community Center, freeing up space to shelter more families, expanding our capacity to serve community clients, and providing needed office space. Through all these efforts, families have overcome generational cycles of pain and poverty. Struggling single parents have broken through despair to experience renewed hope.

And all of this is possible because of your investment of tangible compassion. The numbers in this report speak to the impact of your gifts and to Door of Hope’s stewardship of the resources you’ve provided. But it’s the stories inside these numbers, the personal triumphs of brave moms and dads and kids, that best demonstrate the difference you’re making. These families are in our care today, but because of you they are on the road home. Thank you for making the decision to walk the road with them in 2021…and beyond!

With gratitude,
