The Committee

Our committee is made up of volunteers that work together to create and promote fundraisers throughout the year. We meet at least once a month to discuss updates and needs of the organization.

Hope at Home is a part of both Crossett and Hamburg Chambers of Commerce. We try to participate in local events, specifically both chamber banquets each year. At the Crossett Chamber Banquet in 2024, Hope at Home was given the award of Volunteer of the Year. This is a huge honor for us, and we are grateful to be recognized.

We’ve received several grants over the years from local businesses, and we are thankful for the support!

  • Scholarships

    Hope at Home was able to award two scholarships for our local high schools.

    We are glad to be able to help these gentlemen in their college journeys and hope to be able to continue these scholarships annually.
