Children of Hope Project
Celebrating 20 Years of Giving Back
Event Details
For 20 years, Southern Willamette Valley members and industry partners have come together to make a meaningful difference for families in our community through the Children of Hope Project.
This year, we're celebrating that milestone by supporting two foster families through Every Child of Lane County. On Friday, October 16, volunteers will come together at two homes in the Eugene/Springfield area to tackle projects that will make these families' homes safer, more functional, and more welcoming.
We need volunteers, skilled tradespeople, and industry partners to help make it happen!

Volunteers will be assigned to a location based on the project needs and the skills identified during registration.

Hope Project
What started in 2006 as a project benefiting one family has grown into a 20-year tradition of Multifamily NW members coming together to give back. This year's project is another opportunity to use the talent, resources and generosity of our industry to make a real difference for local foster families.
Come put your skills to work and help create a better home for a family who deserves it.
