MORE ABOUT
Operation Hope
Operation Hope works to end homelessness by providing shelters,
transitional housing and related programs and services to some
4,000 people in Fairfield and Bridgeport. Charter Oak’s original grant
to the organization allowed Operation Hope to employ an additional
clinical case manager, so the organization could serve at least 40
more families. Charter Oak awarded Operation Hope its second grant
to help fund a full-time development director. The addition of this
position will allow Operation Hope to grow and stabilize its
infrastructure to meet the demand for solution-focused housing and
service programs among low-income individuals and families.
As a yearly project, Operation Hope and the Charter Oak Foundation receive and distribute over 100,000 pounds of canned goods throughout the greater Bridgeport area.
