Changing Lives
Dear Therese,
Thank you for the opportunity to be useful and helpful to others outside my usual “circle of influence” of family, friends and co-workers.
When helping to support the House of Hope - Illinois, whether by donation of time, funds, or talent it provides a way for others to feel the satisfaction and sense of significance that comes from benefitting others.
It is clear that House of Hope Illinois does more than counsel, educate, and reconcile others - It changes lives.
I appreciate the opportunity to be a part of that important mission. It makes my life count for more than it would have otherwise.
Sincerely,
Kathleen C.

the reason why
I just got off of the phone with the stressed aunt of a 15 year old boy in the Mokena/Tinley Park area. She is desperately searching for help, for residential care, for John (name changed), as mom and dad are not in a position to fully help their son. She knows that our boys home is not built, but she needs answers.
Through past experiences, I was able to share a number of options with her, for her nephew. As I explained to her, this is the exact reason we are building a place to heal the hurts of teens, and to reconcile families. She is the perfect example for House of Hope - Illinois. A teen spiraling out of control and parents at a loss about what to do. Needless to say, she was grateful for the many options we discussed.
This is House of Hope ... this is our reason.
