Food Security and Community Care

The Storehouse of Hope provides emergency food, personal care services, referrals, needed resources and specific education and development activities

Designed to enhance human dignity and sustain families and individuals, we serve residents living in the North End of the city of Detroit, specifically, zip codes 48202 and 48211.

Throughout the year we accomplished the delivery of 18 mobile pantries occurring twice a month from March to November. Our pantries provided food and some personal care products to 3,000 individuals monthly.  The work of the Storehouse of Hope is conducted through community outreach, advocacy and collaboration.

The Storehouse Of Hope Community Land Trust

In 2015, the scope of our work broadened to include the creation of the first Community Land Trust (CLT) to be established in the city of Detroit.

We aim to protect families in these critical and uncertain times. We cannot achieve our goals alone. Find out how you can help. 

More information on Community Land Trust as a permanently affordable housing solution coming soon!
