Helen’s Hope Chest is an Azura Solution that was founded in 2009 to provide basic needs to Arizona’s foster children and the families who care for them. Our program started as a small patchwork of volunteers working from two rooms in the back of a church. As the needs of foster families became greater after the 2008 recession, and thanks to the support of our community, we now operate an 8,000 square-foot facility in Downtown Mesa and serve hundreds of children per month.
Helen’s has helped thousands of youth by providing quality clothing, shoes, hygiene items, toys, books, and school supplies at no cost. Our unique design provides children and youth with a positive experience of shopping in a boutique-like environment. The atmosphere encourages foster youth to make their own clothing selections. We serve children from newborns to 18 years of age.
All items are given to the children for free, reducing the financial burden on foster and kinship families. This is possible because of generous donations from individuals, church groups, service clubs, school groups, Scouts, businesses, and many others.
