Second Hope Ministries is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and all donations are tax deductible. 100% of your donations go directly to supporting the programs we have in place. None of our staff or board members receives compensation or reimbursement from the ministry. In addition to maintaining the transition home, operating costs include three vehicles that are used to transport men to and from church, appointments, interviews, etc., college books and other educational materials, medical needs (in certain limited cases-dentures), and attorney’s fees to settle certain legal matters such as obtaining driver’s licenses.
Upon release from incarceration, we provide each man with a bus pass for a month, cell phone for a month, toiletries, bedding, two week’s rent, and initial groceries. We also need sustaining supporting ministry partners who would be willing to commit to supporting us on a regular basis so that we can cover our ongoing operating costs and continue to grow the ministry by enrolling even more men in our programs. Financial donations can be made through PayPal.
