Today, the vision of founders Dwight and Zonelle Thompson enables us to go beyond traditional boundaries, reaching into our own "back yards", where we can help both children and their families. For in every American city children need to know that someone cares for them and that whatever their situation is, it's not hopeless.

What We Do
HOPE FOR THE CHILDREN is a non-profit charitable organization that accepts and then distributes donations to the needy. Working in conjunction with Operation Stitches we hold well-advertised events in community parks. There we present musical performances, puppet shows, lively entertainers and guest speakers, followed by a message of hope. Our local law enforcement has been known to get involved and make an appearance. Then we distribute our supplies to the needy.

Get Involved
1. We accept donations of both new and used products, food and clothing, as well as services and financial support. We auction many donated items through eBay and use the money to purchase supplies needed by children and their familes.

2. Operation HOPE FOR THE CHILDREN can provide you with all the necessary tools, resources and training to start your own children's outreach. We'll also show how targeted outreach programs, with food, clothing, and back-to-school supplies, enable you to reach entire communities. Through our resource materials, you will learn how to contact local companies to procure the resources you need to supply your outreach.

Why We Care
If you've ever been hungry, if you've ever felt hopeless or discouraged, then maybe you can understand why we have such great compassion for these children and their families. If we can band together and partner to reach those less fortunate, then we are taking the first step to creating a better world.
