iHOPEoc, Inc. is a collaboration of volunteers from many walks of life. These individuals have come together to form a nonprofit organization with the intent and goals of meeting various needs of the "at risk and underserved" in the communities of South Orange County.

"There are so many fulfilling moments working with iHOPE. Such as meeting Ava, a 1st grader, that lives with her grandmother. We set aside children's books and clothing (all pink, of course, it's her favorite color) for her to choose from on Saturday afternoons. Nothing compares to seeing her face light up every week." - Rev. Anna Carmichael
