The Annual Hope Walk/Run Supports HOPE The Dalles
HOPE The Dalles Committee was formed in late 1990 after a Fellowship of Churches meeting on HOMELESSNESS. Today, HOPE is under the wing of St. Vincent de Paul The Dalles. The purpose of HOPE is to attend to people who need emergency shelter in The Dalles area. A private motel room may be provided for one, two, or three nights, depending on the depth of the need.
The criteria for qualification are these:
- Medical problems that can be verified
- Extreme weather conditions
- Stranded, auto breakdown, accident or abandonment
- Crisis situation when: Police, fireman, hospital advice, or HAVEN advise shelter
St. Vincent de Paul Ministry monitors HOPE business on a monthly basis.
