"I came to Hope Clinic in need of help. I had depression, anxiety, and PTSD. I left my dream job because of my anxiety and depression. I feared leaving my home, driving became a nightmare, I was in financial hardship."

Because of your support, Hope was able to connect this client with a licensed, professional clinician for weekly therapy at no cost.

"My therapist and I talked about my dreams, fears and my strengths. When I started therapy, I told my therapist that I would never get on a plane, and that I don't think I can work because I may not be a reliable person. Recently, I flew to visit my son and grandchildren and, and I spent my birthday out of state with my oldest son. The most amazing part is that I am now working full time, and no longer have fears of leaving my home and engaging with people."

"Through my therapist believing in me and praying with me, I feel like a brand new me. I am strong and ready for the world. I want to thank Hope Clinic for being there when I needed help."

You made it possible.

On this , we thank you for the part that you played in making this client's life better.

Our team is hard at work installing updated washers and dryers for our Wash with Care free Laundromat!
Thanks to all our giving partners who helped make this happen, including the Catholic Foundation of Michigan.

☑️ How to help those affected by SNAP cuts:

3) FINANCIAL DONATION — Giving online is one of the easiest and most effective ways to keep our pantry running. We also recommend supporting (the biggest supplier of Hope's pantry). We simply cannot meet the scale of this expanded need at Hope alone, but FG are experts at deploying food support all across the county. This "upstream" support flows down not only to Hope Clinic, but nimbly to wherever the most effective use of those dollars will be—and that's what's most important!

From our partners at Imber Wealth Advisors, Inc. : ❤️

Friday night reminded us what hope truly looks like. ✨

We had the honor of sponsoring Hope Clinic's Evening of Hope — a night filled with stories, connection, and the incredible power of people coming together to do good. From the dedicated volunteers to the generous supporters and caring staff, every person plays a part in the life-changing work Hope Clinic does for our community. It was a deeply moving event that left our hearts full and inspired.

Thank you, Ross & Patti, for having us!

💙💚💜❤️

2. PRE-PACK AND DONATE SACK LUNCHES AND EMERGENCY BAGS — Our pantry appointments fill up quickly, and we expect demand to become even higher. Pre-packed and shelf-stable emergency grocery bags and sack lunches can be stored effectively and deployed quickly when pantry appointments are full but people still need immediate help.

☑️ How to help those affected by SNAP cuts:

1. VOLUNTEER! Even if we received a flood of donations, we would rely on the critical infrastructure of volunteers to sort and shelve, and to staff our distributions. We ESPECIALLY need volunteers to support our walk-up grocery times, which we expect to be the most impacted. Please visit TheHopeClinic.org/volunteer.

The Bible story of Cain and Abel's most obvious message (hey, murder is bad) sometimes overshadows its subtler message: when Cain shows up to worship, God's attention isn't drawn to Cain's accomplishments; God's focus is on who is missing. "Where is your brother?"
