Hope Totes is a non-profit based in Austin, TX! Their mission; to deliver hope to every child entering foster care or emergency shelters. They seek to demonstrate to every child that someone does care about them by ensuring they are not dropped at the doorstep with a small trash bag of belongings. Instead, they are given a tote full of hope and love. 

Each Tote assembled by volunteers helps:

Meet immediate needs with practical essentials

Restore dignity through personal care items

Create meaningful connections between community and those in need

Deliver hope and encouragement durning times of uncertainty

Every Hope Tote assembled represents more than a bag of essential items, it represents dignity, compassion and te reassurance that someone cares.  

Thank you, Build Native, for volunteering at HomeAid Austin's Hope Totes Care Day! Your time will have an important impact for children in the foster care system.
