Mission Statement
Pomona Hope is a non-profit, faith-based, community organization dedicated to working in partnership with people of all backgrounds to strengthen Pomona’s children, families, and neighborhoods.
About This Cause
In 2005, Pomona Hope launched After School with Pomona Hope, an after-school program for kids in first through twelfth grade. Each day includes a snack and recreation time, homework/reading time, customized tutoring in Math and Language Arts, Gym Games, and Computers or Art time. Participants rotate through the activities according to their grade and ability level. We are also dedicated to working alongside parents and community members on behalf of Pomona’s youth. We aim to provide resources and a safe, affirming environment for youth to grow and learn. We understand that each child is unique, and seek to unlock their unique potential. We understand the importance of a well-balanced family dynamic. Our parent group helps parents gain support, confidence, encouragement, and access to knowledge of other community resources. Pomona Hope partners in running a community garden. The vision of the garden is to grow food, people and community. Families tell us they continue to save over $100 a month in grocery bills. In the future, Pomona Hope hopes to pilot a scalable model for urban green-space and gardening, as well as continue to impact the local community positively in terms of decreasing crime, increasing relationships, allowing opportunities to learn about gardening, agriculture and nutrition, and improving the lives of neighbors both through the beauty they see outside their doors, and the nutrition of food they can put on their dinner tables.
