KentHOPE is hosting a meeting tonight to discuss new ideas on improving their organization.
The group will talk about their vision of establishing a day center and eventual overnight shelter to provide hope and assist those who are homeless in pathways to stable housing and a more secure future. They are looking for ideas on a facility after the Kent City Council declined the use of the Kent Resource Center as a day center/shelter.
KentHOPE is also widening their network of support by contacting and enlisting more local congregations, businesses, service providers and professional organizations. They are actively soliciting donations and planning a community fund raising event in the fall of 2012.
Tonight’s meeting is at 7 p.m. at the Kent United Methodist Church, 11010 SE 248th St.
