Hope Loves Company

Hope Loves Company (HLC) is a nationally recognized nonprofit that provides support, resources and community to children who have or had a loved one with ALS. We give children and young adult caregivers the tools they need to navigate grief, find joy, and remain hopeful.

Recognizing a gap in support services for young caregivers, Jodi O’Donnell Ames founded HLC to provide critical emotional and educational resources for children and young adults. HLC’s focus is to offer mental health and educational support and caregiving resources through free, year-round, nationwide programs, including Camp HLC, Hugs of Hope, Beyond the Bunk hangouts and more.
