Our Programs and services

Food justice is an important part of community justice. We take donations form local businesses and use them to fight hunger. Help us connect with donors and with people in need. 

Address for the Pantry 2185 Old Us 25 Hwy Zirconia, Nc 28790

Distributions are normally every 2 weeks

 Whether a bar of
soap, a toothbrush or a can of pork and
beans, we have a pantry stocked with basic items that every student and their families may need. These are provided with minimal paperwork and are offered free to homeless students and their families. School Supplies: Along with the most basic essentials, we know students are required to provide certain materials for their education. We offer a variety of school supplies to students not only once a year, but any time they may need supplies throughout the year. 

 Imagine having a
a place where homeless teens can come and feel safe. A place where they can come when they have no where else to go. A place to offer training for a bright future. A home where we are able to find stable housing for students, transition them into independent living, and offer support services for them. This is the dream of Only Hope. We are on our way to making that dream a reality. Through fundraising, corporate and private support, and with donations from concerned citizens, The Dream Home has become more than a dream! 

 From time to time
requests come in for things not located in our
pantry. Whether it be gas for a car, clothing for
a job interview, class dues, sports participation
fees, or graduation expenses, we have an
an emergency fund set up to provide assistance
to homeless students. Based on availability,
assistance may also be given to help with
utility bills.
