Hope On A Mission (HOAM) provides hot food, beverages, personal hygiene items and seasonally appropriate clothing to the homeless, addicted women (and men) of Poughkeepsie’s city streets. Last year HOAM served nearly 8,000 meals and provided over 1,000 blessing bags as well as countless pairs of socks, underwear, coats, shoes, scarves, hats, gloves.
