Focus: HOPE (non-profit) Reviews

Love this place! Staff are friendly, helpful, and love the children.

This place was once one of the great wonders of the business world. It is now another symbol of forgotten urban effort. Sad.

Awesome organization. Please volunteer to help them make a difference in Detroit.

Work here nice place to work besides the occasional nonsense. Good pay long hours

I my self can't receive food from there because i am not of age but you can pay your bills there as well and the people are very nice!

Absolutely love Focus Hope! Always there for the people & community! Great resources!

Wonderful!!! Come out and join Global Empowerment Ministry on Sundays at 11 a.m. or 1:30 p.m. Learn to build your own business so you can bring change to your community. Amen

The finest place I ever worked. I spent 7 years at Focus: Hope in the 90's, and goty to know the founders. This is the best organization I ever worked at. Their mission is one of practical action to overcome poverty and reacism in Metro Detroit, and they are, I believe, the most effective organization in Detroit. Their belief in practical action (make change, not protest marches) is seen by their educational programs as well as the supplimental food programs for seniors, pregnant women and children.

Great people who are ready to help children in a cool learning environment

Us. Oldies. Love. The. Extra. Grubb. U give.....eh

Truly a wonderful organization that makes huge positive impacts on the lives of people in need. Staff that enjoy their work and treat all with dignity and respect. Food bank, clothing closet, job training. The world needs more organizations like focus:hope!

Nice, clean, handicap ramp cement wrong place to long should have one handicap ramp on right side would make it is easier to get in an shorter. Cannot go right now to facility had knee replacement take to long to get across street and large parking lot have arrive one hour early to park get across street not good for wheelchairs, walker or cane tried exhausted. handicap ramp as stated to long.

I worked here temporarily..the money was good however the supervisors don't know how to talk to people.I did a lot heavy lifting by myself with no co works to help.They don't believe in team work to get the job done and there was always jealousy with some line workers verses hilo drivers.I had an incident with one of the supervisors who had an issue with me who called one of my family members complaining to them about me not knowing that we were related gossiping about me.(She know who she is JAZZ!!)Long story short,I had to leave this job before I caught a case.

They have all kinds of career and job opportunities. Day Care and a place help wih housing.

They have a lot of businesses that helps out people is good.

Great place to take care of your business only downside is the parking. If you are lucky you may be able to find an opening on the curb in fron and hope nobody stops on the side of you and blocks you in. If not you can find a spot in the lot across the street

Many programs to help educate, support and provide assistance to the Detroit residents. My daughter goes to a support group for breast feeding. Wounderdul and kind people!

Wishing it was the way it used to be back when I was young, all people should be able to get Focus hope if they're low income and need the food, not just for the people with babies under five and seniors

Building was clean, well maintained, access easy. Staff polite.

An organization that cares for everyone. As long as you have a need they can fill, they'll help you.

Mr. Ross and Mr. Echols are the best! Mr. Summers and Mrs. Blackmon were wonderful too.

I know longer work there,but I am sure it's good. I have friends that's still there and they love it.

Good Morning, guys; Start introducing all carpenters/millwright workers to the introduction of making marble, granite, mosaic's & other things just like the European; especially; the Italians that are masters in doing this style of work. FOCUS: Hope has been instrumental in helping people get back on their feets and livelihood. With the inception from the late Father Cunningham, FOCUS HOPE has expanded and earned its respect.

Now, with COVID-19, that has taken lives and livelihood. Now with the expansion of the FOCUS HOPE with doing Carpentry & Millwork and other things, try to pop up tents or an overhanging tarps to social distance and maintain both the health of the students & facility.

Just continue to succeed and prosper.

My Family had a repass there and the staff was very nice.

I always enjoy visiting Focus Hope. It's always interesting and the people there are simply awesome. They're so warm and welcoming.

Free iPad for Seniors 60 years and older until December I believe check out to be for sure

extra food comes in handy and is a blessing to have.

Focus Hope is a staple in the Detroit community that is always doing SOMETHING awesome to uplift the community. Classes, farmer's markets, training and so much more.

I m going to miss the staff my son went to school here and it was a wonderful experience

Learning math....leaders that listen!!! Thank you for that while you all are transiting into your new building...

Great Programs!!!
Has always been a Staple of the Community!!!

Focus hope it's a great place to go four when they offer classes on helping oneself get educated. Thanks for being in the community Focus hope.

Greatest place to volunteer !! The satisfaction you get on helping others is such a blessing! All the people that work their are so awesome and nice ! Be a blessing to someone volunteer

Focus Hope has not been what I have known it to be for the past 40+ years. When I stopped in this day, a woman named Annette, really bowled me over with her "human" professionalism. She is/was an EXCELLENT representative of the Focus Hope, that I knew when I knew Father Cunningham. The work goes on, but they need more people who understand principle's and the reasons for them.

Great employers with uplifting attitudes ... if you are in need of training for various careers and jobs or just need to have a refresher course in whats going on in today's workforce.. focus hope is for you!

Focus hope is the best. Edna Jackson called me and told me about a program that is training and she put me on the list I have been hired in at that job for over a year now and I love it. I've never in my life held employment longer than 6 months. But this job I am not letting go. It is a stepping stone that is financially supporting my life and now I don't have to worry about working at temp agencies and getting fired. This job suits me perfectly and it's all thanks to focus hope. I highly recommend this establishment.

Very cool organization. Lots of cool programs for skills snd trades and they help the community in any way that they can.

I went there for my Magna seating Detroit orientation

I worked there as an Engineer many years ago, it was great place that was filled with wonderful people. It offered excellent career and academic opportunities to those fortunate enough to get into the program.

There was The NAACP TRAINING,for The July, 2019 CONVENTION. A well productive training.

There's no place like it for any person who has any hopes in their lives they need to come there and attend one thing about that place if you want show up and do something different then how do you expect to get anything different this is a place where you can start your life all over again and it will truly be a place that you will go and learn and have your life completely changed regardless to your age young old makes no difference I myself as an older American I have found out that there is no such thing is that you cannot change I have left out one important thing and I've done this purposely I am going to invite you to come out you must see this for yourself come like a blank page and you will receive something that you didn't even expect come get what has been stored up for you that's the end of my comment PS listen to 102.7 praise radio between the hours of 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. listening hear you the call for a life change
