Thank you for supporting Hope Blooms 2025!

May 8, 2025 | Waltham, MA

We are thrilled to share that Circle of Hope’s annual gala, Hope Blooms, raised $170,000 in critical funds to support our mission providing clothing and hygiene essentials to people experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity in Boston and MetroWest. We were proud to honor longtime supporter and 2025 Presenting Sponsor, Charles River Apparel, for their 15 years of generosity and partnership with Circle of Hope. Special thanks to our wonderful guest speakers, Melissa Burgos Cora and Anahi Famania from Voices Against Violence, for their moving words about our impactful partnership!


Thank you, sponsors!
