What is Give Hope 2025?

Give Hope 2025 is a bold new campaign to sustain Calvary’s vital programs and ensure every woman who walks through our doors continues to find safety, community, and the tools to rebuild her life.

“Imagine what we can achieve with more people standing with Calvary!”

Want to hear more about Give Hope 2025? Our CEO, Kris Thompson, explains the new campaign and how you can get involved:

How You Can Give Hope in 2025:

  • Volunteer Your Time: Whether it’s leading a class or serving a meal, every minute you give helps.

 

Hope is holy.
Hope is a desire.
Hope is wisdom for poor people.
Hope expresses faith in a better future.
Hope is in her horizon.
Hope is not beyond her reach.
Hope is the belief that she will achieve.
