“We Are Given Blessings…
So That We Can “Be A Blessing to Others”

“Each Of Us Has A Few Small Extra Seeds, These Small Seeds May Not Mean Much to Us, But These Small Seeds Can Be Giant Help Others.”

Let me explain… at Connecting Hope, we foster a supportive, safe, and progressive environment committed to helping homeless, low-income, and Seniors in San Diego live better lives.

Our “person-centered” service delivery model’s goals are to equip community members with the type of mindset and life skills that are essential when dealing with life’s inevitable challenges and obstacles.

One of our major goals is to build, develop, and nurture Self-empowerment, planning/goal achievement, and resilience.

We define resilience as the power of a person, family, or community to find, use, and create resources to recover from today’s challenges and generate positive change.

With those goals in mind, we’ve developed several impactful initiatives. We’ve listed a few of them below…

Outstanding programs that are making a difference:
*Angels Amongst Us*

*United We Stand*

Outstanding programs that are making a difference:

Angels Amongst Us Program

The “Angels Amongst Us is an outreach program where we show up to homeless encampments and distribute food, water, and hygiene products.

We believe in the inherent worth of every homeless man, woman, and child and provide emergency supplies and survival gear to the most vulnerable members of our communities wherever we encounter them.

Be The Blessing Program

Each of us can be a blessing to the less fortunate. . The “Be the Blessing” program provides food giveaways to working families during the holiday seasons.
We want to ensure that hard working families that are struggling don’t have to make the difficult choice between paying bills or feeding their children and family members over the Holidays

Community Ambassadors Program

Community Ambassadors become an essential part of the neighborhood They promote activities that engage residents and engage in Violence Prevention to help promote resilience, support and health in communities faced with trauma.

Ambassadors provide immediate support to victims after an incidence of violence, through a wide range of services: transportation to the hospital, police station, or home; assistance communicating with victim assistance programs and loved ones who live quite a distance away.

Sunshine For Seniors Program

Unfortunately, many times people wait until Seniors are gone to give them their flowers. At Connecting Hope we believe in making sure that our Seniors receive their flowers right now.
Our Goal is to help them stay active, happy, and lively.

Some of the ways we bring sunshine into their lives is by promoting and facilitating special events, dinners, brunches, and recreational activities for the 55 and over Community.

United We Stand Program

In addition to to Job seeking, interviewing, resume writing classes held when needed… Connecting Hope involves youth in tasks and projects that help, spruce up, and give back to their neighborhoods.

These community initiatives directed directed by the “United We Stand Program” help youths develop strong, hands-on work experience, and project management skills.

However, what’s just as important important is the sense of pride and achievement the youths obtain by be able to admire the work, they’ve done to help beautify their neighborhoods… as well as assisting the elderly and less fortunate in their community.
