Steve's Story. Tackling Mental illness and looking for Community
Humanitarians Tackling Loneliness and Building Connections and Communities
H.O.P.E is a Non-profit initiative that brings people together, through online groups. We host in person and virtual events for people, who are like minded and with similar interests.
Our Initiative
Our Mission
H.O.P.E is a platform to bring people together so that they can come out of their comfort zones and overcome loneliness by meeting like-minded people and making connections with them by sharing some common interests like gardening, cooking, exchanging books and much more.
Our Vision
We are looking to build a platform for people to come together for themselves. As well as allowing for people to pursue, where their happiness lies and to be able to make the world a less lonelier place.
Bee Happy
Aerodynamically it is impossible for the bumble bee to fly. The body is too big for the small size of wings. But apparently no one told bumblebee that, so it flies !
So that is pretty much the story of H.O.P.E. Nothing is impossible unless you are willing to give it a try.

Know the Founder
JOHN HOGAN
I am John, founder of H.O.P.E. Having lived in London, most of my life I have travelled around the world. I found that my home city is a very lonely place, even though millions of people are living in it. People have lost the will to connect. No one really wants to take any initiative to even communicate. Children too have almost stopped playing outside.
With time I have realized that people are getting lonelier and the want to protect one’s mental health is almost not even a concern anymore. People have been suppressing their feelings behind virtual screens, social media or by taking various substances to suppress themselves.
I have a strong urge to change this. I am looking to do this by reaching out to like minded people, who are looking to break this cycle and get over their loneliness by connecting to others.
Extend your hands and join me, to build this community. Let the conversations begin…
