MEMPHIS, TN, March 30, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Christopher B. Hope has been inducted into Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Harboring a desire to help those in need from a young age, Mr. Hope decided to begin fundraising for Saint Jude Children's Research Hospital as a team captain. Once he began visiting patients and hearing more stories, he decided to take a leap of faith and establish the Chris Hope Foundation in 2015, despite not having any prior knowledge on running a nonprofit organization. Working hard to build upon the aforementioned organization, Mr. Hope received much support from his community as he helped provide relief for families with troubling financial, emotional and personal struggles.
With the Chris Hope Foundation, Mr. Hope has helped families cover hospital expenses, mortgages and car loans to help the less fortunate enhance their overall quality of life. Furthermore, the Chris Hope Foundation has provided people with temporary housing with the CHF Family House, granted wishes for children in hospice, offered scholarships to teenage cancer survivors and organized community events advocating for pediatric cancer awareness and research. Over the years, Mr. Hope has been incredibly grateful for all of the families that he has been able to help through his work.
Throughout his career, Mr. Hope has attributed his professional success to his passion and his caring heart. In 2016, the Chris Hope Foundation was recognized among the Top Three Nonprofits in the Memphis Community by the Tri-State Defender. As a result of his exceptional work, he has proudly witnessed the foundation grow from two volunteers to more than 50 active volunteers. Looking toward the future, Mr. Hope plans to hire full-time employees at the Chris Hope Foundation so that they can expand their services and operate on a nationwide level.
