The Food Pantry of NewOrleans was established in 2013 after Toyota of New Orleans transformed a building on their property into a soup kitchen. It has now grown to provide both groceries and hot meals to senior citizens and families in our community. Ms. Betty, the Chief Operations Officer of the pantry, says “...in a city known for food, it is a shame that so many people are going hungry every day.”

Thrive and Giving Hope are partnering together to provide a safe place for families, youth, and seniors to develop a greater community and pursue their hopes and dreams. The programming aims to serve the whole community through Summer Camp and VBS, After School Programming, a Wellness Center equipped with cardio and exercise equipment, dance teams and sport teams practices, and a computer lab. The strength of any community is in the families and leaders, so please join us in investing your time, talent, and treasure in our neighbors in the Ninth Ward.

Inspired by lack of proper conditions and schooling for abandoned children in orphanages, Giving Hope initiated the Hope House outreach program. Hope House was born with the goal to build loving orphanages on every livable continent across the globe.
