I am so excited to report that a little more than a month after we formally announced the HOPE FILE (HOPE Fellows, HOPE Interns and HOPE Loaned Executives) Program, our leader for the effort, Ms. Elaine Fischer, reports that we have received more than 350 applications!  

350 completed applications, since February 6th 2012, from interested college and university graduate and undergraduate students from across the nation.  This is just amazing, and we look forward to engaging many of these young bright lights into the on-the-ground operations of HOPE nationwide, and eventually internationally too.

If you know someone who might be interested in HOPE FILE, contact our HOPE Leader Elaine Fischer.
