Our Story:
In December 2015, my journey began with a single purse donation from my beloved late grandmother, Lena Nobles, in North Carolina. Little did I know this single act of kindness would blossom into the impactful organization we proudly call the H.O.P.E. Foundation today. Since that moment, we have embarked on a mission to provide essential support, one bag at a time. As we reflect on our journey so far, we remain inspired by the memory of Lena Nobles and the countless lives we have touched. Our commitment to spreading hope and positivity continues to drive us forward, and we are excited to keep making a meaningful impact on the lives of those we serve. We obtained our tax-exempt status in August 2021.
