2021 Annual Report

Housing, healing, and hope are all a part of what inspired me to get involved with Door of Hope,” explained actress Cynthia Kaye McWilliams at our September Hope for the Future event. Cynthia shared her personal story of finding herself homeless after moving to Los Angeles from Chicago. “I was living in my car, and then one day I got into a car accident, so the only home I had was suddenly gone.” Despite the help of friends and family, she feels a deep kinship with those who find themselves desperate and out of options. “The line between everything being okay and not being okay is so thin,” observed Cynthia. “And the line that splits us is just resources.” Cynthia is a successful television and stage actress who has worked with Netflix, STARZ, Disney+, ABC, FOX, Cartoon Network, and Amazon. She is also an enthusiastic Door of Hope partner.
