ThANK yOU TO OUR 2013 SPONSORS
Welcome Welcome, Dear Friends! We deeply appreciate your being here tonight. This event – our 17th Dinner & Auction to benefit the HOUSE of HOPE – is a chance to help bring hope to so many women and children in crisis. In 1990, Denny Hancock founded Mamma’s Hands, and, in 1995, the HOUSE of HOPE. Our Mission: To help those in crisis regain their selfrespect, and to help them become productive members of our community. We now have 3 HOUSES of HOPE in operation, and are helping more families than ever. With the help of countless volunteers and financial donors, Mamma’s Hands has grown into a recognized and powerful force for good in the greater-Seattle area. The financial challenges are always great, but the pure joy of helping those deserving Moms recover from crisis, and realize a self-reliant future, is immeasurable. Thank you for your generous support tonight! Enjoy your evening!

So listen carefully for your table number and make your selection quickly -your table is counting on you! Thank you to all of our participating donors! Welcome THANK-YOU, VOLUNTEERS! Our Volunteers are the heart of Mamma’s Hands. They are the awe-inspiring individuals who give so generously of their time and talents to make our programs successful. To EVERYONE who volunteers at the HOUSE of HOPE, with the PHONE HOME program, or behind the scenes at Mamma’s Hands on so many levels and in so many ways — Our Heartfelt Thank-You! We are so grateful for your commitment! Join Us on the Streets! Wednesday nights at 6:00 pm. Reserve your space: www.mammashands.org Welcome PHONE HOME PROGRAM He is somebody’s father, brother, son . . . In 1990, a chance encounter with a homeless father and son forever changed the life of Denny Hancock. Determined to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those living on the streets, Denny founded Mamma’s Hands and the Phone Home Program. The Phone Home Program provides an innovative opportunity for the homeless to contact their families. Every Wednesday evening, volunteers go to the Seattle streets to offer the homeless a cell call to connect with family, and perhaps arrange to return home. Mamma’s Hands uses local-area youth to staff the truck, manage the cell phones, and to provide food, blankets, and a listening ear. The relationship between those who serve and those being served becomes one of mutual trust and hope. These activities give young people an understanding of the needs of the community, and a joy that comes only through helping others. Our ultimate goal is to get the homeless off the streets and back into the arms of supportive loved ones – rekindling their hope to live a more productive life. To date, Mamma’s Hands has reunited hundreds of homeless men, women, and teens with their families. JOIN US! The Mamma’s Hands Bus leaves the Eastgate (Bellevue) Dairy Queen each Wednesday at 6:00 pm, returning around 8:00. Reserve your space: www.mammashands.org Welcome THE HOUSE OF HOPE For every child, a home. For every mother, hope. In 1995, with the help of family and friends, Denny & Leslie Hancock opened the HOUSE of HOPE, to provide a safe and secure living environment for women and their children in crisis. Patterned after the nationally-recognized St. Martin de Porres shelter in Chicago, and operating under “tough love” principles, our program offers and connects with countless services to provide counseling, training, and education to our residents. Most of the women we assist have left everything behind; they are homeless, running out of options, and losing sight of ever having a safe and stable life. Many are domestic violence victims fleeing an abuser. The HOUSE of HOPE helps them at no charge. Our program enables the women to break away from the cycle of dependency, regain hope, dignity, and self-esteem, and to move toward a positive and self-reliant future. Those mothers who commit to a new and better pattern of life are helped in the transition to independent living. In 2004, HOUSE of HOPE-2 was built to meet the ever-increasing and dire need. In 2012, HOUSE of HOPE-3 became operational. Since 1995, our program has given hundreds of women and children the hope and opportunity for a better future.
