The Mission of Hope is faithfully serving our community even if it may look a little different. Due to COVID-19 in efforts to keep everyone as safe as possible, we are having one food giveaway per month on the 4th Thursday of the month at 8am. This giveaway is "curbside pick up" only with clients remaining inside their cars at all times. Clothes closet and restrooms are closed during this time until further notice. All focus is on food distribution at this time.
We are thankful for our volunteers and partners!

Thank you to the community for rallying around the Mission of Hope. Folks are stepping up to make sure the Mission has what it needs to serve the community. From clothing, to food to small furniture items. Thank you Lord for providing through your people. Your thoughts, items but most of all your prayers keep us looking up and moving ahead.

We at the Mission of Hope are blessed with friends and volunteers who continually amaze us with their commitment to Christ, their generosity and the ways they demonstrate His love in giving back to their own community.  A recent example of this is Christie Swan, who in the middle of her cancer fight, gave to the Mission of Hope.
Click here to read about Christie Swan and the Mission of Hope in the article written by Jennifer Cohron recently published in the Daily Mountain Eagle.

Giving Back to the Community

Originally from Weogufka, Alabama, Shannon Williamson became a widow in 2005 while working as a manager with Small Finance in Georgia. She and her youngest son moved to Walker County to help her disabled brother and wife. Work was hard to come by, so it was a struggle to make ends meet. Shannon began a part-time job at Quality Inn which helped, but it did not provide the financial stability she needed. After a year, she became an outreach coordinator at Capstone Rural Health Center, working both jobs for the next six months to build a solid financial foundation. Through it all, Mission of Hope – one of the many nonprofits funded by Walker Area Foundation – was a constant source of support. The loving staff assisted her family with food several times as she worked to get back on her feet. They were a source of inspiration and provided a Christian approach to the assistance they offered. This was needed at the time because Shannon was overwhelmed, anxious about her finances and trying to find a job that would provide her with the means to take care of her family without needing assistance. Shannon says “God has a unique way of bringing everything in our lives full circle. I was once in need, but now I am able to talk about Mission of Hope as a resource for my patients at Capstone, as well as other services I know would benefit the many participants there.” She now serves as a Board Member for Walker County Coalition for the Homeless and for Walker County Community Action. Shannon loves to coupon, so she has a stockpile of food that she can share with those in need. “Most of the time I carry a bag of food in my car in case I encounter someone who is in need. I will have food and even some personal hygiene items I can bless someone with! I want to give back to the community and help people just as I was helped a few years ago.”
