About this organization
Mission
Hope Supply Co. meets the critical needs of homeless and at-risk children by supplying the items they need to thrive. We are the only organization in North Texas which exists solely to supplement the inadequate supply of diapers, hygiene, school uniforms and supplies, toys, baby food and formula and toys.
About
Programs & services for babies and toddlers, Hope Supply Co. provides life's necessities such as diapers, wipes, ointment, baby formula, and baby toiletries to the most vulnerable of the homeless - babies and toddlers. This helps to prevent years of poor health resulting from improper nutrition and hygiene. For school age children Hope Supply Co. provides basics, including school uniforms, shirts, pants, skirts, shoes, socks, underwear, school supplies, toys and athletic equipment. Distributing critical items to homeless children allows homeless parents to devote energy to activities that will help them to break out of homelessness. The Recreational Activities Program provides opportunities for homeless children to participate in activities such as Easter and winter holiday parties and field trips with groups. These activities provide opportunities for children to get out of the shelter setting, learn about the world around them, and have fun. We also receive donated tickets to national sporting events to pass on to the agencies. The Hope-in-a-Box program provides simple, gift-wrapped "shoe boxes" filled with small gifts, toiletries, and special surprises for homeless children living in shelters. Groups with members of all ages and backgrounds volunteer to create and assemble these boxes to help homeless children.
