After an incredible kickoff last summer, we’re thrilled to bring back our 2nd Annual Laces & Lunchboxes this July! This special event welcomes our 1HOPE families for a fun and meaningful day where kids get to pick out a brand-new pair of shoes and a lunchbox to start the school year with confidence and style. It’s more than just back-to-school shopping — it’s about helping every child feel prepared, supported, and ready to step into a new year full of possibility.

Be on the lookout in the coming months for more information about sponsorships, donation opportunities, and ways you can volunteer to help make this event another incredible success!

Our family nights are held once a month, and this is a time where our foster families can come pick up their diapers and other blessings that are donated to us through Amazon and the community. It is a fun-filled night for our families to come together, connect with one another, and grow in fellowship!

Thank you to everyone who attended, donated, sponsored, volunteered, and supported 1HOPE’s 2026 Spring Gala, Rooted in Hope. Because of your generosity and commitment, the evening was a wonderful celebration of the lives being transformed through hope, connection, and opportunity.

Together, we reflected on the impact we’ve made as a community and reaffirmed our shared vision for the future. Your support helps us continue planting seeds of hope that will grow and flourish throughout the year.

We are incredibly grateful for each person who helped make this event a success. We hope you’ll join us again next spring as we continue this important work together. Stay tuned for details and the official date for our 2027 Spring Gala—we can’t wait to celebrate with you again!
