Transforming Hope 7: empowering community, inspiring joy

Tune in to an allnew 'George to the Rescue' episode in which members of a community band together to transform Hope 7 Community Center — a vibrant hub in Troy, NY that offers daily afterschool programs, a food pantry, and a traveling summer camp for local children — into a colorful, artfilled, and energy efficient space. Hope 7's focus is on supporting lowincome families and providing them with safety, joy, and critical resources. During the summer, kids gather at Hope 7 and embark on exciting daily trips, making unforgettable memories along the way.

This incredible renovation was made possible thanks to the generosity of #GeorgetotheRescue sponsor National Grid, along with other incredible volunteers and community partners. Not only did the National Grid team help transform several spaces — including an art room and outdoor play area for the children who attend the center’s summer camp and daily afterschool programs — their team joined forces with Daikon and Best Fire NY to upgrade the building's HVAC system and implement more energy efficiency measures throughout it AND donated an additional $50,000 to assist Hope 7 and its inspirational counselors in continuing their highly impact outreach efforts.

Additionally, our deepest gratitude goes out to the generous teams, sponsors, and volunteers who made this project possible, including: JMP Interiors, 3M, Studio A Landscape Architecture and Engineering, Blue Spruce Landscape & Construction., Old Brick Furniture, TC Valley Cats, and more!
