“Empowering the Next Generation Through Vision, Resilience, and Opportunity.”

​

The Designing Hope Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering individuals through education, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Founded by award-winning designer and philanthropist Linda Rowe Thomas, the Foundation creates access to opportunity for underserved individuals through hands-on training, mentorship, and community development programs.

 

From entrepreneurship accelerators and digital literacy workshops to inclusive innovation initiatives, the Foundation bridges creativity and technology to help people build sustainable futures. Guided by a belief that every dream deserves a foundation, Designing Hope transforms potential into purpose — designing brighter, more equitable communities for all.
