Restoring Hope Financial Assistance
COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE
Assistance is available for people who are experiencing an emergency situation or crisis including loss of a job, reduced work hours, a health crisis, car repairs, or loss of services. We assist with budget counseling, food, rental or mortgage assistance, and disconnect notices for utilities.
You must show proof of need: eviction notice, late notice, or disconnection notice. We assist clients living in the following zip codes: 77379, 77388, 77068, 77069, 77090 (North of 1960 and West of I45), and 77375 (if in the KISD).
Appointments are scheduled with clients to better assist them in their time of need. Our goal is to assist people as they use their gifts and talents to get back to financial independence.
If you need assistance please email assistance@trinityklein.org. Scheduling an appointment does not guarantee the qualifications for assistance.
