A Welcoming Space -The Fox Foundation helps Hopewell create a new reception area
First impressions are important when you are considering sending your family member to a place that will help him or her recover from a serious mental illness. A welcoming entrance sets the tone.
Before the Harry K. Fox and Emma R. Fox Charitable Foundation stepped in this year, Hopewell did not have such an entrance. When guests opened our front door, they walked into a long hallway which made it unclear where to go next. Turn right? Turn left? It was confusing.
Now, thanks to the Fox Foundation, we have a welcoming, professional reception area. Large picture windows (recycled sliding doors from the hallway) look out onto the Hopewell property and a reception desk, soon to be staffed by an able assistant, is clearly the place to receive assistance.
Since 1995, The Fox Foundation has helped Hopewell change the lives of people with a serious mental illness. They are a true partner in every sense of the word and we are very thankful for their involvement.
