The Hike for Hope has been a fun and easy way to connect to Hope Street. Each year we’ve had the hike, it’s been an opportunity to walk with friends, learn more about Hope Street, reflect on your own Hope Street story or hear stories of those already connected. Walking down a peaceful 2 mile loop, participants have loved an opportunity to get outside and enjoy each other’s company. It’s been an approachable way to get new people involved!

This year’s Hike for Hope marks the official launch of our Sustain Campaign. The goal of the Sustain Campaign is to raise $6,168,362.37 from July 2025-December 2027. The funds will also keep our programs running, our buildings open, our events inspiring, our members housed, our staff paid, our kids playing, our initiatives going, and our community served. Alongside sustaining our daily work, the campaign will clear our $3 million Shechem building loan, allowing us to move forward and pour more of our attention into our community. The Hike for Hope will serve as an opportunity to inform people about our goal, and get people revved up and excited about the campaign.
