The Delta Hope House received 2 awards for the year 2025 at the annual Recognition Banquet of the Red River Valley RSVP on June 3, 2026, in Paris, Texas! RSVP (Retired and Senior Volunteer Program) is a part of the AmeriCorps Seniors program and is sponsored by Paris Junior College, serving Delta, Hopkins, Lamar, and Red River Counties.
Billy Thedford, a Hope House volunteer and RSVP member since 2024 with over 600 service hours, was selected as the 2025 Delta County Volunteer of the Year. Billy is in constant motion at the Hope House, whether unloading the North Texas Food Bank truck or helping clients load groceries into their cars. He’s known among his fellow volunteers for his friendliness and quirky jokes!
In addition, Lisa Reynolds-Earley received the 2025 Special Recognition Award for Delta County. Lisa has been a Hope House volunteer for 11 years and an RSVP member for 5 years. She’s known for her ability to organize procedures (and people!) to help keep our shopping days running smoothly.
We are very proud of, and grateful to, our Delta Hope House volunteers, who cheerfully give of their time and talents to provide service to our community!

On Wednesday, December 17, 2025, Cooper Lake State Park employees delivered an amazing amount of food to the Delta Hope House donated by more than 1600 people! The many food donations came from the State Park’s annual drive-through “Christmas in the Park” event held on Friday, December 12th and Saturday, December 13th. The usual entrance fees were waived, replaced by a request by the park for each visitor to donate a nonperishable food item to be given to the Hope House for distribution to clients throughout Delta County.
The Delta Hope House and our hard-working volunteers sincerely thank all of the wonderful, caring folks who donated food items, and the Cooper Lake State Park employees, who organized the event and delivered the food to the Hope House! We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday season!
