About Foundation of Hope:
 
The Foundation of Hope is a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to campaigning for community members spanning numerous Connecticut locales. The Foundation is driven by the idea that a true community is not just about being geographically close  to  someone  or  part  of  the  same  social  web  network.  Rather,  community  depends  on  its  members  feeling  connected  to  one  another  and  responsible  for what happens to their fellows. Humanity is the ultimate community, and everyone plays a crucial role. 

The foundation began as an effort to create environments within local communities that  inspire  hope  for  those  who  are  hopeless.  This  non-profit  organization  is  dedicated  to  collaborating  with  charitable  organizations  to  provide  solutions  to social issues, disaster relief, medical assistance and humanitarian aid with particular attention to children and education. All programming comes at no cost.
