Restore Hope Ministries Inc

   Since 1978 Restore Hope Ministries has been helping Tulsa area families overcome sudden unexpected financial crisis through our homelessness prevention initiative, hunger reduction program, hope restoration, and seasonal extra helpings. Financial crisis can strike anyone, but especially vulnerable are middle to low-income working families with fewer extra dollars to save in emergency funds. A family with an unexpected loss of income who visits Restore Hope receives individual case management services to identify their individual needs such as rental assistance, groceries, school supplies, Thanksgiving dinners, Christmas family sponsorships, “housekeeping” (cleaning) kits, and other needs and resource assistance as identified by the family and caseworker. 

   Restore Hope is committed to restoring families in financial crisis to economic and spiritual vitality. Restore Hope has been able build upon our successes by enhancing our existing programs in ways that give families that hand-up to self-sufficiency. By helping families through their short-term hardship, connecting resources, and developing a financial plan, Restore Hope builds families to self-sustenance which strengthens the entire community.

   We are proud of what we do and believe that our success rate speaks for itself.  When our clients return to us with thank you cards and pay it forward to others who need help, we see that we have truly met our mission in restoring them to vitality. Last year Debra, whose husband had unexpectedly lost his job, wrote to us, “I’ve never been one to ask for help, but when I needed it most, you were there…Restore Hope is a perfect name for the organization because that is what you did for me.”
