Circle of Hope Inc.

Mission

The mission of Circle of Hope is to provide infants, children, and adults experiencing homelessness in Boston and Metro West with clothing and necessities in order to preserve and enhance overall health and personal dignity. By continually providing seasonally appropriate clothing, shoes, linens, and hygiene essentials to 25 homeless shelters, healthcare clinics, and community programs, Circle of Hope gives the most vulnerable members of our community the opportunity to protect themselves from the dangers of illness and disease that come from being homeless in New England.

Vision

Clothing and hygiene products are the first step in the solution to health equity and housing security. This goes beyond the immediate health benefits of protection and improved hygiene, these essentials contribute to feelings of self-worth that can bolster school attendance, increase employment opportunities, and lead to economic advancement.
