Our mission is clear: we provide a hand up, not a hand out, by creating opportunities for stability and self-sufficiency without the burden of unnecessary red tape. Through our life skills training, educational support, and professional development programs we empower individuals to reclaim control over their lives and achieve goals.

Our Story
I Will C. Hope was birthed from a simple, yet profound belief: that hope, kindness, and belief in one another can change everything. This organization is a living tribute to my sister-in-law, Claudia Williams Hope, a woman who possessed a rare and beautiful gift for identifying and nurturing the potential in others.
I know her impact firsthand. When I was facing the daunting challenge of paying for the beginning my college education. Claudia stepped in with unwavering generosity, and her belief in me became the spark I needed to move forward. That single act of kindness became the foundation of our mission.
Inspired by her incredible spirit, we now carry that same light forward.
Our focus is on providing unwavering support and encouragement to individuals and families who are striving to achieve stability and self-sufficiency. We firmly believe in offering a hand up, not a hand out.
We stand beside you every step of the way, working collaboratively to create meaningful opportunities and dismantle the barriers that may be holding you back.
At I Will C. Hope, we want you to know that we see you and we believe in you. We are committed to helping you realize your full potential and attain the life you were meant to live.
