Hope’s House

08/12/2026

Hope’s House serves many foster kids in several counties. We receive generous donations from all over the community, which means it takes a lot of work to:
Go through those donations, launder/clean items, fold/sort and inventory them so they are ready to go!

Here is the first step in processing donations!

With school right around the corner, we need some specific back-to-school items.
You can drop off items any Tue or Thur from 10AM-2PM.
Or visit our Amazon List to donate online!
Thank you for your continued support and for helping care for the foster children in our community.

“Adoptive/Kinship caregiver sentenced to prison for starving a child to death in Stark County”.

“Mom killed son (3yrs old) after regaining custody from adoptive family in Cuyahoga County”.

“Child endured years of abuse in Summit County (foster) home”

Sick. Outrage. Heartbroken. These are feelings that often hit us when we read these articles. We demand answers. We ask why. We talk with others about it and share our opinions about the brokenness of the system.

And then there is that moment…. When a small still voice asks us, “But what are YOU going to do about it?” And we must choose whether to remain a bystander hoping someone else will step into action or take action ourselves.

We believe unless the Church and those who are part of it are awakened, to move into action on behalf of vulnerable children & families in our community, things are only going to get worse.

No, what you are being asked to step into is not easy. But it’s also not easy for the children suffering at the hands of their abuser or for the child who has no idea where their next meal will come from or the baby struggling from heroine with drawls. It’s not easy for young teen who is now being trafficked because no one saw her as worthy enough to step into this very broken system.

Yes this is a broken system and YES there is something you can do about it.

Message us for more information on ways you can get involved.

🔔Urgent Need 🔔
We have had a lot of littles and sibling groups that have been placed this year and in need of our services. Which means we are running low of car seats.
If you have a gently use car seat that is not expired and you no longer need, you are welcome to drop that off at the donation center.
Or if you would like to buy one off of our Amazon list that will be shipped directly to us!
Thank you for your help!

At the Stark County Foster Parent banquet, kindness showed up in the sweetest way. Lisa entered the raffle for a wagon and she said she would donate it to Hope’s House if she won. When Robin shared that she could really use one for appointments, I told her I would make sure she got it.
Lisa’s ticket was drawn-and we were able to bless Robin with the wagon.
This is what community looks like. Generosity, compassion, and people looking out for one another.
