A Guest Column From The Harvest Foundation Team
By India Brown, Program Officer
The Harvest Foundation’s Project Hope Initiative is well underway, and we are excited to collaborate with community members to spark inspiration and innovation.
During the month of June, Ignite Hope sessions were held across Martinsville and Henry County.
Facilitated by Reynolds Homestead staff, the sessions provided more than technical assistance—they were gatherings of local people committed to making a positive impact.
The positivity that filled each session was contagious. People with different backgrounds and experiences came together with a shared goal: to spark hope throughout Martinsville-Henry County. The sessions highlighted the power of collaboration.
As participants shared their ideas, connections were made, and partnerships began to form. This spirit of connection is the cornerstone of Project Hope, reminding us that we are stronger together.
As we move forward with the Project Hope Initiative, we are filled with optimism. The energy and enthusiasm witnessed during the Ignite Hope sessions are just the beginning. Let’s continue to harness this momentum, support each other, and turn our collective hope into lasting impact.
Project Hope applications are open now. Applicants are encouraged to call (276) 632-3329 or email info@theharvestfoundation.org to speak with a program officer about their ideas.
