Fall is here! We can’t wait to get you caught up on what’s new at Help Hope Live.
Our 39th Birthday
In case you missed it, on September 30, Help Hope Live celebrated its 39th year of trusted medical fundraising. Check out our new logo and tagline:
Thanks to your participation and support, we have a lot to celebrate as an organization as we reflect on the past year, including:
–1,000 client fundraisers
–4,800 disbursements to pay medical costs (25% more than last year!)
–Reducing our admin fee to 3%
-Launching in-depth cost info pages on multiple diagnoses in our community
-Upgrading our website accessibility with accessiBe
-Expanding our mission to Puerto Rico
-Returning to in-person events and conferences
Thank you for making the Help Hope Live community what it is today. We’re just as dedicated to helping clients and team members reach their medical fundraising goals as we were in 1983, and we are so grateful for your support and encouragement as we approach our 40th.
New Feature: Disbursements on Your Dashboard
We’ve expanded the functionality of client Campaign Pages to include the ability to see a list of expenses Help Hope Live has paid on your behalf (disbursements) right on the Dashboard!
To see the disbursement list, log in, click DASHBOARD, scroll down to the new DISBURSEMENTS section, and click VIEW. You’ll see key details like check or ACH number, vendor name, date, amount, and payee address—updated every Wednesday and Friday.
We Want to Share Your Story on TikTok!
We’ve started a TikTok channel—follow us here, and get to know our staff in our first video:
