Our Mobile HOPE Unit is on the move—and today it made a special stop at the Fuller Center!
From practicing mindfulness to sharing smiles and laughter, the bus was filled with joy and connection. Every time our unit is filled with smiling faces, we’re reminded of the power of bringing HOPE on wheels directly to the community.
