“Hope Network, Inc. is a nonprofit organization that collaborates with hundreds of faith-based organizations, community organizations, government entities, social service organizations and businesses to serve the impoverished. Hope Network has an annual event called Hope Fest. Hope Fest is a citywide event that provides free groceries, clothing, medical, dental, haircuts, hygiene items and helping services to the most needy, underserved and marginalized populations. Hope Fest has operated in Tucson for 21 years and last year we served 20,000 needy Tucsonans at the Kino Stadium. Hope Fest provides over $1.5 million dollars of good and services on that one day. Unfortunately, we anticipate more people needing assistance this year.”
