House of Hope / Cumberland Childrens Center

Donations of Clothing, toys and household items to DCS Children

The organization has established a Client Services program to assist parents who have children in their home or are working on unification with the children. These individuals would be Department of Children Services clients or past clients of the organization. All individuals must go through a need assessment before receiving funds from the organization. The organization has a scholarship fund in memory of Hope who lost her life to abuse. The organization was created in her honor.

The organization has established an Angel Tree program where individuals donate toys or cash to the organization in order to ensure all children in the county who meet certain income criteria are able to have a normal Christmas.

The organization has established a Grace Program where a relative caregiver has children in the home that are not their natural children. These children have been placed in the home by DCS or have basically abandoned by their parents. The needs of these caregivers are assessed and if a need is there, the organization will give financial assistance to the caregiver to ensure the child is in a safe home environment.
