Our Mission: No Family Homeless.

Loisann’s Hope House is the first and largest homeless shelter in the Rappahannock region. For over 30 years has served as a lifeline for homeless children and families. We put them back on their feet and give them hope.

A family with one full-time worker earning the minimum wage cannot afford the
local fair-market rent for a two-bedroom apartment anywhere in the United States.

Your commitment and contributions provide a future for children and families right in our backyard. Loisann's Hope House needs your financial contribution now more than ever. Every dollar ensures that a child is off the street and able to have shelter.
We touch the lives of 40 children a day and over a hundred people a year! Help us continue to be their beacon of hope and provide stability in the wake of tragedy. Your Gift of Hope changes lives!

Donations are needed.

We are in need of food, black trash bags, paper products, cleaning supplies, medicines, and gift cards (Food Lion, Walmart, etc.).
Please see our Wish List page for an all inclusive list.
We accept donations of food, household goods, furniture, appliances, and clothing; however, due to our building expansion, space is very limited on what we can accept. We are always in need of non-perishable food items, cleaning supplies, and paper/plastic products and will always accept those items.

You can volunteer at Loisann's Hope House in the office, daycare, maintenance, or help with childcare in the evenings while our mothers have classes.
