Hope House is a 90-day shelter program serving families, couples and single females experiencing homelessness throughout Manitowoc County.  We develop individualized plans to identify and address any barriers that may be getting in the way of living independently.

​

Homelessness is a never-ending issue in our community caused by lack of affordable housing, lack of daycare, poverty, broken family relationships and multiple circumstances. Everyone's story is unique.

We were awarded a $41,000 grant as part of Lowe’s Hometowns. Our organization is one of three Wisconsin nonprofit recipients, and 100 nonprofits nationwide to receive a grant to make physical improvements to our space as a part of Lowe’s largest-ever community impact program. Red Vest Day was Tuesday, September 10th when Lowe's volunteers worked on the exterior repairs and landscaping. Thank you Lowe's!

“I’m not sure what our family would have done if Hope House hadn’t been here to help us. We are extremely grateful and thankful to have received so much help and to have been presented the opportunity to work this amazing program – which not only helped us to achieve and maintain stability within our lives but also presents new opportunities and tools to change and better our futures.”

– Erica and family, former residents of Hope House

Community support is integral to the success of our guests and their families. Together, we are supporting those who may be at their very worst with unpredictable life circumstances. We have seen their tears during their struggles, and cried tears of absolute joy with them the day they moved to their new home.

Our Mission

Helping families and individuals experiencing homelessness achieve sustainable independence.
