The Salvation Army to Break Ground on Hope House Lofts Expansion
$1.4 Million Project Will Provide Safe Haven for Homeless Older Youth and Small Families

Medford, OR — The Salvation Army is excited to announce the official groundbreaking of the Hope House Lofts Expansion, a milestone in its mission to support local families and older youth experiencing homelessness. The event will take place on Tuesday, July 15, 2025, at 10:00 AM at 1065 Crews Rd, Medford, OR 97501, and all community members are warmly invited to attend.

Every day, families arrive at Hope House with little more than the clothes on their backs and the courage to ask for help. Thanks to the community’s compassion and support, Hope House has long been a place of healing, stability, and new beginnings. This expansion will add seven fully furnished studio apartments, providing safe, welcoming spaces where hope is restored and transformation begins.

“This project is a testament to what can happen when a community comes together,” said Major Randy Mulch, Jackson County Coordinator and Corps Officer. “It’s not just about buildings—it’s about giving people the chance to rebuild their lives.”

This $1.4 million project has been generously funded by AllCare, Jackson Care Connect, The City of Medford, Emerging Leaders, Junior League, Ben B. Cheney Foundation, Carrico Family Foundation, Pacific Power Foundation, WAFD, West Family Foundation, and many generous individuals and companies in our community. Outlier Construction is serving as the general contractor and has donated substantial resources to the project, along with KSW Architects.

Commissioner Colleen Riley, who oversee The Salvation Army’s Western Territory, will be honored guests at this special celebration along with Divisional Commanders Jonathan and Vickie Harvey. Following the ceremony, guests are invited to enjoy complimentary refreshments and learn more about the vision for Hope House Lofts.
