THE HOPE BUS
50 Charities in 50 Days!
Fresh Start is one of the 50 selected charities!
The Hope Bus is touring the Nation, lighting a Torch of Inspiration to every City it visits
The mission of the Hope Bus is threefold:
(1) To bring awareness of local and grassroots charities to community residents. To this end, The Hope Team will visit selected charities, learn more about the charities through interviews, and share their stories via media sources including radio, television, newsprint and online social media networks;
(2) To inspire community residents (collectively and individually) to become involved in volunteerism in an effort to create a neighborhood support system; and
(3) To lead by example, The Hope Bus Tour will encourage charities to build alliances and share scarce resources in an effort to strengthen their collective organizations in a tough economy that is especially challenging for nonprofits.
