Marjorie's Hope

Please join me in wishing Marjorie’s Hope a Happy Birthday. Today on June 16, 2015 we became an official not for profit organization.

What started as a single backpack program has grown today into 7 programs under our brand. Which NEVER could have transpired without the support of our volunteers and community.

Thank you United Way community impact committee for a wonderful interview this morning. I always love having the opportunity to talk about Marjorie’s Hope, the work we do, the impact we have upon families in need and how many wonderful volunteers support our work.

Marjorie’s Hope is proud to announce that we are the first not for profit organization to co partner with Pasco County via our Outfitters store.

Good Morning Friends, Family, Business Supporters, and Donors,

Marjorie’s Hope wishes to extend our heartfelt appreciation for your continued kindness and generosity toward our annual Back 2 School Supply Drive.

In just five days, two of our community partners—Farrell Roofing and Gianni’s Pizza—have already reached out asking if we could arrange a pickup of donated school supplies. Our response? Absolutely! We were happy to schedule pickups on Day 2 and Day 3 of the campaign.

This early outpouring of support is exactly the kind of community response that makes a meaningful difference in the lives of local students and families. Thank you to everyone who has already donated and to our business partners who continue to stand beside Marjorie’s Hope year after year.

We are also excited to share that 106.3 HITS FM is helping spread the word through Public Service Announcements (PSAs) highlighting the names and locations of our participating business collection sites.

Together, we are ensuring that students begin the school year with the tools they need to succeed.

With sincere gratitude,

Wowza! Five days into the campaign and already scheduling pickups—what a wonderful testament to the generosity of our community! ❤️📚🎒

Good Morning friends, families and supporters of Marjorie’s Hope.

I wanted to share some exciting news with all of you this morning.

On Friday, May 29th our first school supply donation box was placed at Farrell Roofing. Our 2026 Tools 4 Schools drive officially kicked off on Monday, June 1st. Yesterday, June 2nd , I received the attached text message from Farrell Roofing employee, Katie Allen (see screenshot).

Today, volunteers John and Susie Urban will stop by to empty the donation box and leave it ready to be refilled once again.

To everyone who donated and helped fill the Farrell box so quickly __ thank you! This is exactly the response we were hoping for. Your generosity and willingness to support local students will help ensure children throughout Pasco County begin the school year with the supplies they need to be successful.

On behalf of Marjorie’s Hope, thank you to Farrell Roofing, Katie Allen, their employees, customers and everyone who contributed.. together we continue to prove that when a community comes together incredible things
happen.

With gratitude,

A H U G E shout out to
Attorney Debora Diaz for your continued support of Marjorie’s Hope!

We are always grateful for the kindness and generosity you show to our organization and the children we serve. Time and time again, whenever Marjorie’s Hope reaches out for assistance, you are there with a willing heart and helping hand.

How do we truly thank someone who is always there? Someone who consistently shows up, supports our mission, and helps us make a difference in the lives of children in need?

The truth is, a simple “thank you” hardly seems adequate.

Please know that your generosity, compassion, and unwavering support do not go unnoticed. Because of community champions like you, Marjorie’s Hope can continue providing hope, dignity, and opportunities to children throughout Pasco County.

On behalf of our Board of Directors, project managers, volunteers, and the thousands of children and families we serve, thank you for believing in our mission and for continuing to stand beside us.

With heartfelt gratitude, thank you, Attorney Debora Diaz, for being a blessing to Marjorie’s Hope and our community. ❤️

Today is Marjorie’s Hope (MH) first day having our Back to School (B2S) supply boxes in 21 local businesses in our community who support our not for profit organization.

If you happen to be in their business, please thank them
for supporting our mission.

When you aren’t having a good day and then this pops up in your text messages from a grandchild…. It helps to put a smile on your face and for the moment allows me to forget my woes!
