Gifts Of Hope Unlimited, a Metrowest/Boston-based organization, collaborates with town social workers, Voices Against Violence, and other domestic-violence shelters who identify families struggling to meet their most basic needs. As a charitable, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, Gifts of Hope provides financial assistance, home resources, and community-focused initiatives as a step towards a safe and empowered future.

Gifts of Hope partners with local organizations in neighboring communities, to provide ongoing support and respond to urgent requests. The organization's activities allows impacted families to focus on creating a safer environment as they establish a new normalcy.

Gifts of Hope is contacted by service providers with requests for household goods, groceries, and help with urgent financial needs. Items requested are located on Facebook Marketplace, Craig's List, community bulletin boards, community organizations such as the League Of Women Voters, garden clubs, faith-based organizations, and personal friends and acquaintancesAll services rendered are confidential.

 

 

 

 

Programs:

  • Financial Access: Those impacted by relationship violence often have limited financial resources, to establish a new home and care for their children. This program provides the necessary monetary funds, to help victims with rent, transportation, and legal costs.

  • Product Access: Local social workers or domestic-violence service-provider agencies work with survivors, to make a list of the household goods, furniture, and clothing they need. Gift of Hope then either searches for or buys the items so that clients don’t have to call around to multiple agencies.
