PROJECT NEW HOPE
    Founded in 2007 by caring individuals who understand the effects of serving our country in the military, Project New Hope’s mission is to provide combat veterans and their families (including the kids) the education, training and skills necessary to manage their lives after wartime service and fosters family togetherness through weekend retreats
    Whether a soldier served in Korea, Vietnam, The Gulf War, Iraq, Afganhistan – it doesn’t matter at Project New Hope. All U. S. veterans and their families are welcome. There is no charge associated with Project New Hope retreats, financial concerns will never prevent them from offering their services to soldiers and their families.
    If you or someone you know has served our country in times of war, please join Project New Hope for a weekend retreat for the entire family. Come join other veterans and their families, as we all continue on the journey. What happened before was beyond our control…what happens next, is up to you.
