Changing Lives for Students in Rural Appalachia.

Do you remember how much fun it was to get new school supplies when you were a child?
Parents want their children to have everything they need for a good education. But for families living with poverty in rural Appalachia, access to basic materials can be inaccessible.
At Mission of Hope, we provide backpacks, school supplies, and hygiene for over 10,000 elementary school students across rural Appalachia. To keep this program going, we need your help.
Teachers tell us:
“This program helps all their kids start the new school year on an equal plane and they are so excited when they get these NEW supplies. “
A donation of $10 will provide a new backpack and supplies to a very deserving student.
