Star of Hope, one of Houston’s largest and perhaps most recognized providers of shelter and services to the homeless, has completed its construction of Cornerstone Community, a transformational campus that will house up to 180 women and 420 moms, dads and children. Star of Hope retained Dini Spheris to conduct a campaign planning study for a capital and endowment campaign with proposed objectives totaling $100 million. Dini Spheris right-sized Star of Hope’s campaign effort through a phased approach, beginning with a $50 million capital endeavor – the largest ever capital campaign for a human services organization in Houston at the time. Dini Spheris continued to support the Star of Hope team through campaign counsel. Within five years, Star of Hope had reached its goal and built its campus.
