In the last year, as life seemed unsettling, when questions couldn’t be answered, when toilet paper couldn’t be found, when needs seemed magnified, and fear of the unknown surrounded us, there was one thing that appeared to keep everyone going from one day to the next ~ HOPE. Hope for normalcy, hope for answers, hope for a package of toilet paper, hope to be with family members, hope for continued employment and so much more. Without hope, what do we have?

As challenging as 2020 has been for everyone near and far, Mission 25 has hung on to HOPE for every person served. Hope for stability, hope for mindfulness, hope for healthier relationships, hope for family reunification, hope for recovery, hope for confidence and the list goes on. Without hope, what motivates someone to keep going?

On Tuesday, December 1, 2020 (#GivingTuesday), the Community Foundation of Whitley County is offering to match dollar for dollar up to $2,500!! I humbly ask YOU to join myself and many others in giving HOPE to the single men, single women, single moms and the children to be served inside and outside the walls of Mission 25! Now, more than ever, we need YOUR help to turn HOPE into possibilities without limitations!! The year 2020 is coming to a close (thankfully); however, the doors of Mission 25 will remain open to address the pressing needs, challenges, and brokenness of individuals who need HOPE. YOU can make that happen! YOU can stand in the gap for a single male, single female, single mother and child(ren) and give them HOPE to move through each day until they turn hopefulness into victory, into success, into recovery, into self-sufficiency and into a life full of right choices. Will YOU choose TODAY to provide an opportunity for someone to stand up taller, with more confidence and with more HOPE than ever before?

On behalf of the Mission 25 Board of Directors, staff members, volunteers and those to be served, I ask YOU to help us meet the match and provide HOPE for the next 365 days. ~ Shawn Ellis, Executive Director
