The 2025 Annual Report:
Lives Changed | Impact Measured
HopeQuest’s 2025 Annual Report captures a year marked by growth and measurable impact. Nearly 100 men participated in our treatment programs, while hundreds more encountered hope through support groups. Combined with outreach efforts and staff speaking engagements, thousands encountered the message of freedom that guides our mission.
Within these pages, you will find both impact metrics and powerful testimonies of lives restored. In 2025, HopeQuest admitted 221 individuals, answered 497 admissions calls, served families in 22 states across the U.S., and awarded over $547,000 in scholarship funds. Financial support also reached new milestones, making 2025 the second strongest year on record for admissions and giving, with December becoming the largest donation month in the history of HopeQuest.
We invite you to explore the full 2025 Annual Report and learn how your continued support makes freedom possible.
