Thank you Teamsters 667 for your continued support over the years! Your partnership means the world to us.

Chris Hope and Viola Cage from the Chris Hope Foundation stopped by to visit and accept support for the recent CHF Race for Hope Halloween Edition.

We want to say a big THANK YOU to all the Teamster Locals that donated to this event! It was very much appreciated.

Looking forward to continuing to support CHF and all they do for the community!

Families with children fighting life-threatening illnesses are also often battling loss of income, vehicles, and homes. We aim to help them in any way we can.

Chris and our friend Megan recently sat down to talk about our recent awards, what this means for CHF, and how the community is powering our mission forward.

We had a great time at the Memphis Most awards last night with board members and friends. To top it off, we took home not one, but TWO AWARDS! Chris Hope won Person of the Year, and the Foundation won best non-profit organization.

The fact that these awards were community voted makes it even sweeter. We simply could not do this without you. On behalf of our team, THANK YOU!

We have lots of big plans for the holiday season! If you want to sponsor these efforts or volunteer your time, let us know. We couldn't fulfill our mission without community support. 💛🎄🎁

CHF’s last board meeting of 2023 is in the books! Thank you to the incredible men and women who serve on this board, along with our donors and dear friends. We absolutely could not do this work and support the families we do without you. Stay tuned… because there’s a lot more in store in 2024!
