Mission & History

Mission

Vision: A strong community where all families are hopeful and self-sufficient.

Mission: To be more than a pantry by providing clients with resources to be food secure and self-sufficient in a hope-filled environment.

Heartland Hope Mission is a faith-based 501(c)3 charitable organization founded on Mathew 25:35-40.

Heartland Hope Mission helps working poor families by providing them with some of life’s most basic staples including: a week’s supply of food, clothing, hygiene items, SNAP assistance, community referrals, and job resources. Because Heartland Hope Mission is a faith based organization, we also offer an encouraging word and prayer.

When a family is trying to make a decision between food and an electric bill or rent, they are often unable to think past their current situation. Heartland Hope Mission provides food, hygiene items and clothing to help alleviate these immediate pressures. By doing so, we give hope, allowing these families to consider options that will improve their long-term condition. We also meet with our clients one-on-one to help connect them to the resources they need to become self-sufficient.

Heartland Hope Mission wants to make sure that everyone feels welcome and loved. We do not discriminate based on: race, color, national origin, religion, sex, gender identity (including gender expression), sexual orientation, disability, age, marital status, family/parental status, income derived from a public assistance program, political beliefs, or for prior civil rights activity. 

History

Heartland Hope Mission was born out of a church that became overwhelmed with requests for assistance. The church turned to the community for help, and in 2003, Mission for all Nations was officially incorporated. In 2011, the organization changed its name to Heartland Hope Mission.

“For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me. Then these righteous ones will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you something to drink? Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing? When did we ever see you sick or in prison and visit you? And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!”

Matthew 25:35-40
