Every new beginning offers a moment to pause, reflect, and look forward with purpose. January is as much a month for setting resolutions as it is about recognizing the progress we have made, celebrating impact, and recommitting to the work ahead. For the Promise Hill Project, this reflection reveals a powerful truth: together, we are changing lives.

Every person we meet leaves an imprint on our hearts. Every story, every handshake, every moment of connection stays with us. At Promise Hill Project, those we serve are the very reason we exist - our inspiration, our purpose, and our driving force. Today, we pause to honor each and every individual whose life has touched ours.

Hope can feel intangible. But in many under-resourced areas, a small gift can turn hope into reality. For us, at Promise Hill Project, $50 is not just money; it’s a means for transformation. In communities where food is scarce, clean water is rare, and technology is a distant dream, $50 can make the difference between surviving and thriving.

Around the world, millions of families struggle to meet their most basic needs. The United Nations estimates that over 700 million people still live in extreme poverty, surviving on less than $2.15 a day (UN SDGs). For these families, necessities such as food, clean water, hygiene products, and access to technology remain out of reach. Poverty is not just about income; it is about the dignity of having shelter, the health provided by nutritious meals, and the opportunity that comes from learning tools and resources.

Starting a nonprofit is more than just a charitable ambition. It’s a deeply personal, long-term commitment that demands resilience, clarity, and heart. It requires wearing multiple hats, managing relationships, navigating red tape, and showing up, again and again, for people who rely on your word.

In a world full of urgent needs and limited resources, nonprofit organizations play a vital role in bridging gaps, supporting vulnerable communities, and creating long-term change. But behind every successful mission lies a critical ingredient: fundraising.

As summer arrives, many of us look forward to fresh produce, picnics, and long, activity-filled days. But for thousands of unhoused individuals across America, summer presents a new set of challenges, particularly when it comes to food. At Promise Hill Project, we believe that access to nutritious meals isn’t a luxury; it’s a human right.

As we approach May, a month filled with opportunities to give back, Promise Hill Project is kicking off a special fundraiser to celebrate our founder, Lisa Arbogast’s birthday on May 21st. This year, we’re focusing on a collection of deodorant to help provide basic hygiene supplies for our homeless neighbors.

Nonprofit organizations thrive on the generosity, efforts, and dedication of volunteers. Whether it’s lending a helping hand at an event, offering professional expertise, or simply dedicating time to serve others, volunteers play a crucial role in enabling nonprofits to carry out their missions effectively. Their contributions enable organizations to stretch their resources, expand their outreach, and have a lasting impact on communities.

Giving to a non-profit not only creates a positive impact on underserved communities but also offers tangible tax benefits. As a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit public charity, your contributions to Promise Hill Project are tax-deductible to the extent determined under law.
