A network of homes,
across the Carolinas.

Hope Within Reach is funding an expanded headquarters in Gastonia and a network of community hubs designed to bring Bags of Hope, Bridge Camp prep, Christmas events, and emergency overnight care closer to where kids actually live. Phase 01 is under construction now.

Why this campaign

We're not building
a building.

We're building the next twelve years of LOTC. The new headquarters in Gastonia consolidates everything we currently scatter across rented rooms, donated closets, and volunteer garages — bag-pack stations, Christmas wrap floors, Bridge Camp prep space, emergency caregiver supplies, and an open-door office where caregivers, partners, and donors can sit at the same table.

Beyond Gastonia, the campaign funds a network of community hubs across the Carolinas: smaller buildings, leased or built, that anchor LOTC's reach in counties where the drive to our HQ is currently a half-day round trip. The first hub is in scoping now.

Phase plan

By the numbers.

Phase 01 Gastonia HQ — under construction now
Carolinas Service area, not just Gaston County
90% Of every dollar — direct to kids
Twelve years ago we put pajamas in a closet at DSS. Hope Within Reach is the closet becoming a campus — and a campus becoming a network.
