Greetings!
OUR AMERICAN IMPACT: Promise Hill Project provides basic necessities of life to impoverished communities in some of the poorest states in America. We serve those in the most need in Kentucky, Louisiana and New Mexico. We also offer provisions in Ohio and Texas.

OUR IMPACT IN OHIO
Below you will see the impact we recently made in a tiny village outside of Columbus, Ohio. We are able to continue to serve so many people in need because of the ongoing support from amazing donors like you! The need for basic necessities of life continue to increase due to the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Please consider helping today.
MOUNT STERLING COMMUNITY CENTER in Mount Sterling, Ohio

Promise Hill donated our 'Bag of Love', which was filled with personal care items such as shampoo, deodorant and body wash. Through the generous staff at the Mount Sterling Community Center, 56 families in need received nearly 300 personal care products .
The MSCC also contributed 5 face masks per bag to help stop the spread of COVID-19.

The founder of Promise Hill Project, Lisa Arbogast, was born and raised
in Mount Sterling, Ohio.
"Poverty exists in various forms and it thrives in places you would never imagine. There is an easily identifiable need to justify helping in my hometown.
When growing up, the struggles my own family experienced were not
often discussed, but were real. There is something to be said about
not forgetting where you came from."
Lisa Arbogast, Founder
