What People Are Saying

“I received a Scoop of Hope backpack when I arrived at R3, straight from jail. The bus pass helped me get around, I was able to treat my mom to some makeup with the CVS gift card, and having a good pair of thick socks in the winter meant so much to me.

My favorite part was the notebook to organize all my poems.”

— Vinny, R3 Resident

“Never before in my life have I ever received anything as generous as the backpack that I got within an hour of walking through the door at R3.

I didn't have a lot of clothes, I didn't have a journal, I definitely didn't have a majority of the things that were in that bag which took a huge expense off of me. Because I received the bus pass and the gift cards, I was able to find employment. 

A Scoop of Hope is unbelievable. I can speak for myself and well as several other residents of R3 that this does make a huge difference for people. I know it did for me.”

— Duncan, R3 Resident

“I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for the Incredible support you’ve provided me with - the backpack full of essential items and the bus pass. 

Your generosity has made my transition Into recovery housing so much smoother, and I can’t thank you enough for being a beacon of hope during this journey. Your kindness truly makes a world of difference.”
