Success is Possible with the help of HOPE
Catrena Hunter (second to the right of Pres. Obama) is a shining example of a HOPE growing success story. She works as a clerical assistant for the D.C. Department of Corrections. She is recently divorced and the proud mother of 3 children (1 girl and 2 boys). Catrena took advantage of the Earned Income Tax Credit (ETIC), and was able to purchase clothing and school supplies for her children and catch up on paying bills. Catrena also qualifies for the Making Work Pay tax credit.
Heartened by the boost, Hunter enrolled in Operation HOPE’s Homeownership Program and is about six months away from owning her 1st home! She has moved her kids and herself out of a bad apartment situation into a home to prepare her family for a new home of their own after she completes our program. She said she often thinks about being apart of the event with President Obama earlier this year and has received so much “HOPE” from Operation HOPE and The President Obama Administration to keep making strides for herself and her family.
