Committed to uplifting Appalachian communities—especially the veterans, families, and under-supported individuals who are too often overlooked. We believe in showing up where others won't, doing what others don't, and giving hope where it's needed most.
We provide essential care through our Booger Boxes — Our flagship project. This is a care package designed to meet both basic and often overlooked needs for folks facing tough times. Each box has hygiene essentials, snacks, socks, and a handwritten letter from our team (wanna pitch in?). But the real magic? The 'Booger Bonus'—we tap into what our community actually needs (think shoes, jackets, or other urgent items) and deliver on that.
High Country Hopes is a veteran-led, veteran-focused nonprofit working to fight homelessness and housing insecurity in the Appalachian region. We provide practical support through events, resource fairs, and partnerships with local shelters and service providers. Our work is grounded in fierce transparency, ruthless efficiency, and a deep belief in community-powered change. Through outreach, mentorship, and grassroots events, we aim to offer not just a helping hand, but the opportunity to build stability and connection.
