In 2025, Helping Others Prepare for Eternity (H.O.P.E.) in Garden Grove, CA, served 10,014 people, including 3,288 children. Many of them would have gone to bed hungry without H.O.P.E. We distributed nearly 900,000 pounds of food, equal to about 500,000 meals. Those are meals that would have been missed, resulting in hunger, if not for H.O.P.E.
Please consider making a tax-deductible donation ($25, $50, $75, $100 or more) to H.O.P.E. so we can help those who are most in need with food, resources, and support. Every dollar makes a difference and helps provide hope to those who need it most.
In addition to food assistance, H.O.P.E. provides clothing, hygiene products, school supplies, emergency assistance, mentoring, STEM education to include tutoring, music and art, and programs that help women and families build brighter futures.

Help us Turn Despair into HOPE
for low-income and at-risk kids in
Orange County by supporting
our goal to raise $60,000
For nearly 30, H.O.P.E. has worked tirelessly to end the often multi-generational cycle of poverty, food insecurity, and the lack of educational and employment opportunities. Every day, thousands of children in Orange County face food insecurity and lack of opportunities. New moms struggle to provide diapers and other baby essentials. H.O.P.E. works tirelessly to meet this need. In 2025, we helped more than 3,000 children and their families become food secure and take steps toward both short and long term health and achievement. Through our One-Stop Safety Net, we provide emergency food security to children and their families who are often struggling with the decision of whether to pay rent or buy food. Once families are food secure, we give low-income and at-risk children the opportunity to do better. Through Sounds of Hope music mentorship and free music lessons, we provide these young people with access to opportunities and achievements many never could have imagined were within their reach.
You can make a difference in the lives of these children by supporting H.O.P.E.
