Apply for a Hope Grant

Hope Grants are funded by the HopeWin community to support individuals and families facing real financial hardship.

You may submit an application at any time. Grants are awarded based on available funds, community priorities, and eligibility at the time funding is issued. Submitting an application does not guarantee funding.

Who can apply

• U.S. residents

• Individuals experiencing financial hardship

Applicants selected for funding must be active HopeWin members at the time grants are issued.

Hope Grants are awarded based on available funds and responsible program capacity. As HopeWin grows, funding expands in stages to ensure grants can be issued consistently and sustainably. Applications may remain under consideration until sufficient funding is available.

Important notes

• One application per household every 90 days

• Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis

• Funding depends on available Hope Grant funds
