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.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this night possible—whether you purchased a ticket, sponsored the event, donated an auction item, or simply showed up with a heart full of compassion. Special thanks go to the Hope for Homes committee—Judy Duroseau (chair), Lisa McCarthy, Lisa Miller, Deidre Patterson, and Anne Wright—who spent months planning the event’s details. Your generosity fuels our work and strengthens our community.
Save the date for next year’s Hope for Homes! Hope for Homes 2026 will be held on Thursday, October 1, 2026, at Episcopal Church of the Redeemer in Bryn Mawr.
