A Night Of Hope

HOPE Community Services in a Nutshell

In 1984, Mary Lou McNaney founded HOPE Community Services with a single mission: Help Our People Eat. That driving force was so strong, it became its name.

From those very first meals that were distributed at the New Rochelle Train Station to our Covid-19 response, HOPE's mission has always been to help the most vulnerable in our community, with dignity and respect.

As HOPE strives to make a difference wherever it is needed, it has become a full-stop community service organization, with services including:

• Food Pantry
• Soup Kitchen
• HOPE-Full Kids Breakfast & Lunch Program
• Summer of HOPE Kids Summer Food Program
• Emergency Food Packages
• Community Thanksgiving Dinner
• Community Christmas Dinner
• Housing Programs
• Shower Bus with Laundry Support
• Community Outreach
• Immigrant Services
• Advocacy
• Citizenship Classes
• Homeless Resource Center
• Kids Summer Camp
• Backpack & School Supplies Giveaway
• Christmas Party with Toy Giveaway
• Coats, Hats, Scarves & Gloves Giveaway

• Sneaker Giveaway

HOPE utilizes one of the largest volunteer operations, and almost all of our volunteers become regular members of our support team, and part of our extended family.
