Hadassah's Hope is a gospel-centered outreach to women working in strip clubs in and around Jacksonville, Florida. Our volunteers are committed to ministering to women right where they are and pointing them to Jesus, who is our only HOPE.
Every week, we go into all clubs that we can enter in the Jacksonville area for one hour just to love and serve these girls and share the love and hope of Jesus. We bring a gift and/or homecooked meal and serve it, putting it onto plates as a way to show the girls that they are loved and cared for. We simply hang out, enjoy good conversation, and offer prayer. No expectations or agendas. Simply love.

As we've gone into clubs over the years, we have come to learn that everyone in these girls' lives takes from them. Our outreach is a small way we can demonstrate God's love to them with no strings attached. The ultimate goal is not to get the girls to leave the industry, but rather to be able to share Jesus with them so that HE can transform their lives.

We are in the process of building out and fundraising for our new TRANSFORMED program for dancers we build relationships with through outreach. It is a 10-week commitment, meeting as a group 3 hours each week, plus one-on-one mid-week mentor check-ins and counseling attendance. Over the course of the 10-week program, participants will receive tools and resources to take the first step toward holistic transformation. Between 4-6 participants will be selected for each 10-week session. Each participant is assigned a mentor, and trained professionals lead all sessions.

We LOVE our volunteers, and there are so many different ways to get plugged in and join us on this mission to love every girl in every strip club in Jacksonville.
1. GIVE. Give a monthly or one-time donation. We also have an Amazon wish list. 2. COME "CLUBBING" WITH US. Join the Outreach Team on the front lines weekly. Women - Come in the club and let's share the love of Jesus with these ladies! Men - We need brave fellas to monitor the parking for our safety while inside the club. 3. COOK. We coordinate as a group effort to provide meals to each club 1-2 times a month. 4. PRAYER TEAM. The Prayer Team commits to praying over the Outreach Team during the hour we are in the club as well as for the women working in the clubs. 5. CARD & LETTER WRITING. The ladies we serve are always looking for encouragement. |

Our new Hope Center opened in March 2021 to provide in-person support once a week for any questions, needs, prayers, resources the girls in the club need. We are so excited to have this set time and space to be able to meet with the girls.

As a non-profit, our ministry is fueled by the love and generosity of those who share our passion. We are so very grateful for every donation, no matter the size. Donations enable us to provide food and gifts to the girls, which is our gateway to conversations and ultimately relationships. Donations also enable us to connect the girls to resources for specific areas we have found over time they ask us for assistance with such as food and housing assistance, rehab and counseling services, resume building, job seeking, parenting resources and support, among other things.
