Owen Mullen and Esper Delgado of Hope Hollow Ministries spoke to the Rotary Club of North Jackson at the club’s February 16 meeting. Hope Hollow Ministries is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization developed for the purpose of ministering to children and adults with special needs and their families. It provides inclusive and integrated programs that are designed to provide year-round opportunities to experience fun, fellowship, and growth. 

Hope Hollow Ministries began in 2008 by three families of children with special needs. The founders realized the need for a program where children like their own could gather with peers and experience the joy and fellowship of camp. As the children of the founding families grew older, the programs developed further to include people with special needs from 5- years old through adulthood. 

Hope Hollow is located on Catlett Road West of Canton, MS. The camp accommodates 80 campers annually and focuses on giving those campers a fun experience in a day camp environment. Four different programs are offered: summer camps, weekend retreats, after-school programs, and vacation/holiday camps.

We thank Mullen and Delgado for bringing us the information on Hope Hollow. The Hope Hollow presentation and the complete meeting can be viewed at the following link:
