World Homeless Day - October 10th

2024 H.O.P.E. Foundation 

World Homeless Day Fundraiser

We are excited to announce the 2024 World Homeless Day Fundraiser starting on September 1, 2024. Every year the H.O.P.E. Foundation brings our community together to raise awareness and vital funds to support the homeless individuals we call Guests in the Hampton Roads community.

History

The concept of ‘World Homeless Day’ emerged from online discussions between people working to respond to homelessness from various parts of the world.

The Inaugural World Homeless Day was marked on the 10th of October 2010.

Since its founding, World Homeless Day has been observed on every continent except Antarctica, in several dozen countries.

Use of the idea of ‘World Homeless Day’ is open for all to use… anywhere in the world.

Purpose

The purpose of World Homeless Day is to draw attention to people who experience homelessness needs locally and provide opportunities for the community to get involved in responding to homelessness, while taking advantage of the stage an ‘international day’ provides.

H.O.P.E. Meals on Wheels has been feeding and supplying meals, resources, and basic needs to our guests in the Hampton Roads community, three days a week serving 60 to 100 guests a day, rain or shine. Approximately 8,969 meals were served during the 2022 calendar year. We also have been accepting nearly 160 calls per month through the H.O.P.E. phone line 757-241-6900.
