December 2016, I received my first purse donation from my grandmother, the late Lena Nobles in NC. This started what is known today as H.O.P.E. Foundation and since then, we have been able to fill and donate over 500 purses/bags to those in need in NC, VA, and DC.

May 28, 2023 - HOPE Foundation went to Greenville, NC to team up with Something2Somebody again to give out purses and bags to those in need.

December 2021 - We sponsored a family of 5 for Christmas in Emporia, VA.  The mother was in the hospital with covid while 2 of the children were home with covid. This left the father having to take care of his entire family on his own. We asked for the Christmas list and delivered the presents in time for them to open on Christmas morning. We even had some extra gifts that were dropped off at  the Ronald McDonald House in Richmond, VA.

October 2021 - We hosted a baby shower for a mom in need. With the help of donations, we were able to provide the venue, decor, food, gifts, and games for a full experience. She was able to invite her family and friends to celebrate her upcoming bundle of joy.

2016 & 2021 - We teamed up with other organizations for a Back to School Drive. Children left with filled back packs for the upcoming school year. 

We have also teamed up with other organizations in NC & VA such as Hashtag Lunchbag Richmond, the Beta Gamma Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., Meals on Wheels, and Something2Somebody  just to name a few to help those in need.
