| Our philosophy behind Common Interest Groups here at Hope is simple: We want to help people connect with others by finding things people are interested in. Below is a list of the current groups we have and we are always adding more. Feel free to contact the leaders of the groups directly with questions, or, if you would like to start a Common Interest Group of your own, please contact Aaron Lee. |
