HopeFlorida logo

Hope Florida serves as a connection point for community collaboration between the public and private sectors, faith-based communities, and nonprofits. Through the efforts of our Hope Navigators, we are going beyond government to create a pathway for Floridians to live up to their God-given potential and accomplish the American Dream – ultimately achieving prosperity and economic self-sufficiency.

How YOU Can Serve

Hope Florida provides faith institutions with a revolutionary new angle for community outreach with their neighbors in need. Hope Florida aims to break down silos, connect those looking for help with those who have a heart and call to serve, and then get out of the way.

How YOU Can See & Meet Real-Time Needs

CarePortal is a care-sharing technology that connects faith institutions, community organizations, and individuals who "want to help" with neighbors who "need help", in real-time. By signing up to use CarePortal, you, your organization, or your ministry can see vetted needs right in your community. Providing items as simple as beds, car seats, clothes, or school supplies to those in need, as well as the new connections you make within your community can transform lives. With a simple, "Yes, I can help" you can join Florida’s care-sharing movement that has contributed to historic impacts in the child welfare system, and is reimagining how faith and community networks see and deliver impact to the most vulnerable.
