Impact evidence

Programs described in its return (3)
  1. $47,377 spent. Malashock Family Foundation awarded Partnership 4 Hope a grant for the biggest expense category- Support for Youth. These expenses are incidental emergency and educational in nature. Job changes car issues late rent or utilities and purchasing food for the youth and their children are main areas of support that Partnership 4 Hop gives to youth connected to our program.
  2. $26,751 spent. Horwath Foundation awarded a grant to support Youth Mart operations. Youth Mart is our warehouse where youth connected to our programs can shop for free. Household items such as beds kitchen tables and chairs sofas and other household furnishings as well as appliances. Most youth do not have a way to get these items to their homes so our volunteer group Truck Brigade will deliver the items free of charge. Truck Brigade also picks up donations including the furniture and returns items to Youth Mart. Supplies are needed for Youth Mart operations to clean repair and package items for delivery.
  3. $38,844 spent. Stanley E. Fulton Family Foundation provided a grant to purchase a delivery vehicle including support for insurance and one year of estimated operating expense. The vehicle allows the organization to deliver items to our clients in a more flexible manner also making purchase and pick up of supplies for Youth Mart more efficient. Donations can be collected at different times than the usual weekly routes allowing for more items donated and available for clients to choose.
