HERE IS HOW YOU CAN HELP
Board Members received a report from a private investigator (hired by Hope & Home) with statements from several women who detailed their experiences of sexual harassment and/or a toxic work environment. The board chose to do nothing.
You are not alone. Secrecy, silence and shame is what has perpetuated these issues over the past decade.

Between working more than 40 hours a week and raising two young children, Mrs. Ballage has worked with the Colorado Federal Pro Se Clinic in Denver to represent herself because she does not have the funds to retain an attorney. Her lawsuit is not only about her own claims but the additional women who may have the opportunity to testify with similar claims.

Hope & Home does not have a process for refunding monetary donations, however nonprofits organizations are required by law to return a donor's gift if the funds cannot be used according to the donor's intent or if any significant provisions of a gift agreement are violated. If your intent was not to add to Hope & Home's bank account (because they receive enough government funding to cover programing and expenses), you can ask for your money back.
