What does the Sip & Swine BBQ Festival benefit?
Home of Hope at Gwinnett Children’s Shelter
The Home of Hope at Gwinnett Children’s Shelter is a private, non-profit 501©3 residential care facility that provides both long and short-term services to homeless children (0-17) and their young moms who find themselves in a homeless situation.
Our transitional program moves children and mothers from homeless to hopeful into a home of their own. We serve children and mothers by setting them on a path to independence while keeping the family unit together. Our program develops customized life plans for mothers that include mandatory employment, family savings goals, and life skills classes which will teach her how to maintain her household upon completion of our program. Our children’s needs are met by first giving them a homelike environment where by are safe and loved and free to be kids. We make sure they have their emotional, educational and physical needs met and then we watch them blossom.
