ABOUT US
Together...We make a difference!
The idea for The Hinton Hope Foundation came from Summers County native, James Andrew "Andy" Rollyson who wanted to contribute to his hometown. During the summer of 2013 he called up Laura Lilly of Nimitz, WV for ideas and she had plenty! Next came others who felt the same and had something of their own to contribute.
Now we have a growing number of volunteers, creative advisors, media attention, a grant writer, an environmental scientist (for the ginseng project), a business consultant, a photographer, a 501c3 non-profit status with the IRS and most importantly we have the the support of the Hinton Mayor, Joe Blankenship and the people of Summers County, WV.
