Hope Mountain Center
Site Master Plan
Hope Mountain Center is located on a rural mountain-top in Cebu, Philippines. Today, there are 3 homes at Hope Mountain Center; a total of fifteen (15) homes are proposed to be developed.
The Site Master Plan includes the development of a chapel and several multi-purpose buildings. The multi-purpose buildings will include counseling rooms, office space, school classrooms, a library, large group meeting rooms, vocational training rooms, a medical clinic, and temporary housing for staff and visiting missionaries.
A professional architect from Cebu City donates their services for the design of Hope Mountain Center.
Homes
Each home can accommodate up to ten (10) children. The first home was completed in 2019. A second aftercare home was completed in 2020.
A third home was completed in 2023. The third home is temporarily being used to provide space for support services needed to care for the children living at Hope Mountain Center. After construction of the new Education Building, the third home will be transformed to accept children.
Education Building
The Education Building is a multi-purpose building that will provide space for education and support services needed for the care of the children living at Hope Mountain Center.
The Education Building will include dedicated classrooms, a counseling room, a de-escalation room, a library, a medical clinic, a meeting room, office space for the social workers and administrative staff, a training room, storage space, and an area for large gatherings.
Gardening & Recreation
We have several vegetable garden areas at Hope Mountain Center. We also have a chicken coop to produce eggs.
We also have four goats at Hope Mountain. The goat enclosure is one of the places the children go when they are feeling stressed.
There is a lot of open space for recreational activities. We hope to eventually build a covered basketball/volleyball/badminton court.
