Salvation Army, Project Hope

Is a program offering Hope to individuals and families in Georgia who have been overwhelmed by illness, a house fire, a layoff, or any other verifiable catastrophic

event. Each year thousands of hardworking individuals and families find themselves in an unexpected financial crisis. These are people who have never sought help from anyone, but who are thrust into a position of not knowing how they will pay their mortgage, medical expenses or even how to pay for food.

Project Hope offers financial relief to families who, through no fault of their own, have suddenly become vulnerable to losing their home, or who may have to discontinue life-sustaining medical procedures, or who just simply can’t make ends meet.

The Salvation Army Financial Emergency Services Centers
