Welcome!
Hope Dolls is a non-profit organization that gives toys and clothing to abused and neglected children, and low-income families. More than charity, Hope Dolls is a community of volunteers providing Portland with a positive response to the cyclic and destructive nature of abuse and neglect.
Our program is about providing teens with independent living skills, a fabulous work ethic, and respect for themselves, others and the law.
When a teen enrolls in our program, they become eligible for these services, among others:
- Training in job skills
- Letter of recommendation for their classes, future jobs, or other projects
- High quality, top brand-name clothing (for "free") so they don't stand out from others for lack of essentials when they attend school, eliminating the differences between "have's" and "have not's"
- Furniture, dishes, or a multitude of other daily living items which are donated to us
- Sometimes food while they are here or for their homes
The services are NOT in exchange for work but instead are a benefit of being enrolled in our program.
