A REAL VACATION just for you!

 
Would you and your family like to come out to the country and spend a couple days in an attractive two-bedroom cottage in Hope, New Jersey? It might be a chance to relax and get away from all of the stresses of medical treatment. Haven Of Hope For Kids seeks to give children and family members a renewed sense of mutual support, courage, confidence, joy and optimism.
 
You and your family (maximum of 5 people) can do as much or as little as you want.
 
There’s lots to do here in the summer like fish for trout or bass, have a barbeque in the back yard, visit a farm and see the animals or explore our historic town or our nearby state parks, go swimming or rafting on the Delaware River, enjoy the rides and water park at Land Of Make Believe. In the winter there is skiing, ice skating and sledding. Camelback and Shawni and other Pocono ski resorts are all close by. And, in all seasons there are farms and animals to visit and also movie theatres, bowling and nearby factory outlets.
 
And, coming to Haven of Hope for Kids won’t cost you a thing. Upon arrival you will receive sufficient money to purchase food at the local supermarket and to cover all your incidental expenses during your stay. We can even provide you transportation, picking you up at your home and driving you when you are here.
 
Haven Of Hope For Kids is for people of all faiths. If asked (and only if asked), our Executive Director, Fr. Bill Potter, or a trained professional of your faith tradition, including Jewish, Muslim and Christian, will be available to counsel our guests. If you would like to come, you need to make arrangements as soon as possible with your social worker at one of our referring hospitals:
