About Hope On Deck

Mission: Hope On Deck is dedicated to restoring dignity, compassion, and hope to individuals and families affected by addiction, poverty, and hardship. Through harm-reduction services, free access to essential items, community education, and unwavering support, we strive to meet people where they are and walk beside them toward healing and stability. Inspired by Earle’s legacy, we believe every person deserves to feel seen, valued, and supported as they work toward a healthier future.

🛒 Earle’s Legacy Resource Center

One of our most meaningful milestones is the opening of Earle’s Legacy Resource Center—a warm, welcoming space where anyone in need can shop free of charge for:

• Clothing
• Shoes
• Food
• Hygiene products
• Household items
• Other essential needs
  
  

This is more than a resource center—it's a place of choice, dignity, and compassion, built to honor Earle’s dream of helping others rebuild their lives with respect and hope.

🤝 Community Partnerships & Support

Through collaborations with rehabs, detox centers, sober-living homes, resource centers, and homeless shelters, we are able to help those we serve to find treatment or connect to other resources. We also are able to forward the following items so that men and women will have what they need navigating life through addiction or recovery.

• Hygiene products
• Clothing and footwear
• Food and snacks
• Tents, sleeping bags, and survival gear for unhoused individuals
• New clothing, book bags, and school supplies for children in foster care
  
  

These partnerships allow us to place essential support exactly where it's needed most.
