ANOTHER VIEW: Home of Hope provides safe haven for those homeless

By Heather Loveridge  |  It all started with a PTA meeting. In the early 1980’s three concerned PTA mothers – Barb Lewis, Joanne Culvern, and Sharry Hague – saw firsthand the homelessness crisis for children in Gwinnett. Rather than waiting for someone else to tackle this issue, these moms single handedly raised $2.5 million to support children facing homelessness in their area.
