The ongoing mission of the Hope Center is to mentor and empower at-risk youth, focusing on 3rd-12th grades, in DeSoto County and provide a safe place for them to play, learn, and grow. The Hope Center endeavors to come alongside our youth to encourage, strengthen, and build character so that they can become life-giving adults and productive citizens in their families and our communities.​The Hope Center is a registered non-profit organization with a 501(c)3 status. We have no building and no paid employees. We have been blessed to be invited into local schools and churches to be where the need is most prevalent. Our program is run by volunteers in the local community who have a passion for reaching the most vulnerable students.All of our events are at no cost to the students we serve. Our activities are sponsored through private and corporate donations. We are also an official Affiliate of the Mentor Memphis Grizzlies Foundation. Every dime we get is used to bring the activities, events, and materials to the youth in our community.We focus on group mentoring and 1:1 mentoring of students in 3rd-12th grades as we believe that this is a transitional age that faces the most challenges. Our mentoring team works with these students to give them a voice and to help them navigate through these trying times. The benefits of mentorship are great, and much needed in today's climate and have been documented to reduce gang violence, increase leadership skills, reduce bullying, and increase school performance and citizenship.We have big plans for our future and would love for you to partner with us in our journey as a mentee, mentor, volunteer, sponsor, or with prayer.The Hope Center is a beautiful, positive, upbeat addition to DeSoto County. Its place in the community enhances opportunities for our youth and provides skills and leadership training for the next generation.Donations can be mailed to The Hope Center, 1709 Linden Drive, Nesbit, Ms. 38651.
