Hope House gets generous new ray of hope
LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Good news for a local group that helps the homeless; Family Promise of Lubbock announced that an anonymous donor will return the Hope House to its original appearance back in the 1950's.
The donor bought trees for the house and hired a painter. This is also the same man who donated a DVD player so that families could use it for job training. The Hope House in central Lubbock benefits families with children who are homeless.
