Q: Isn't Hope Outreach just a thrift store?	A: Hope Outreach is more than a thrift store. Your patronage and donations support the store and 5 key ministries for the community: To help with immediate needs of running a family, Community Care offers work in exchange for services or goods. However, most of the services provide guidance and help on a more personal level. Spring of Living Water helps those struggling with homosexuality and sexual brokenness, while our Earn While You Learn educates and empowers young parents about how to be good parents and life partners.

A: There are various programs in the Parenting Ministry such as a free confidential pregnancy test, Earn While You Learn educational program for young parents, pro-life advocacy, post abortion counseling, providing educational materials and directing the Sanctity of Life event and speaking engagements.
