01 Oct A Truly Inspiring Celebration of Hope, Community, and Compassion

Posted at 10:40h in Announcements by

On Tuesday, September 16, nearly 100 guests gathered at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer to celebrate Hope for Homes 2025. Thanks to the incredible support of our attendees, donors, board members, and staff, the event was a tremendous success.

Together, our amazing community, from the Main Line and all over Montgomery County, came together to raise more than $126,000, essential funds to support our vital housing, meal, and graduate self-sufficiency programs—lifelines for families facing housing instability and food insecurity.

But this night was about more than dollars raised—it was about raising hope. Hope for families navigating the unimaginable: homelessness and hunger. Our mission remains bold and beautifully simple—to ensure every family has a safe place to sleep and enough food to eat.

The evening featured a lively Fund-a-Need paddle raise, an exciting live auction, and a raffle that gave guests meaningful ways to support our work and engage with our mission. View the video below.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this night possible—whether you purchased a ticket, sponsored the event, donated an auction item, entered the raffle, or simply showed up with a heart full of compassion. Special thanks go to the Hope for Homes committee—Judy (chair), Lisa, Deidre, Lisa, and Anne—who spent months planning the event’s details.

Thank you to our generous donors
