How Hope Haven Came to Life
Our story starts with heartbreakāand ends with hope for thousands.
The Spark: A 2014 Celebrity Encounter in Syria
A world-renowned celebrity visiting Syrian refugee camps was confronted by the unimaginable: a 7-year-old orphan shivering, hungry, and alone in the mud. The child's hollow eyes and desperate plea pierced through fame and fortune. Moved beyond words, the celebrity emptied their pockets, gave their coat, and made a sacred vow. Using personal funds and celebrity influence, they raised $5 million and founded Hope Haven in 2015. The first delivery fed 500 families. What began as one star's compassion became a global beacon of hope.
