DENVER— A Denver nonprofit that helps those experiencing homelessness could soon cut critical services without immediate help. In October 2023, Haven of Hope saw a 266% increase in immigrants seeking services, which put a large strange on its resources. Denver7 shared the nonprofit's need for help in May. After the story aired, Haven of Hope received several donations but said it was only enough to get by for a few months.
In a letter to supporters earlier this month, co-executive director Ondrea Trahan said the demand for services 'has surged, and the resources needed to sustain and expand our operations are stretched thin.'“We are operating in such a way where we’re having to meet weekly and say what services we may have to cancel,” said Pastor Derrick Vaughns, Haven of Hope co-executive director.In May, Pastor Vaughns publicly asked for donations for the first time in the organization’s history.
