Rethreaded Gives Operation New Hope Tour of New Campus

Operation New Hope had the opportunity to tour Rethreaded’s new campus yesterday, and we are thrilled that they are our new neighbors! Rethreaded has bought the Springfield property located at 515 E. Ninth Street, and they are in the process of moving their nonprofit operation to this beautiful new facility. The Campus of Hope is a 20,000+ square foot main building that was built in 1949 and was originally a train depot. We love the old charm contained in the windows, walls, and floors and join with Rethreaded in seeing the great potential of the space. We couldn’t be more excited for their team and all the new clients they will be able to serve at this new location.

Rethreaded’s Founder and CEO Kristin Keen lead our tour and shared her excitement and vision with us. She shared with us that her team is looking forward to serving more women who need help and that they are excited to have the much needed space for increased production capacity, training, support services, and events. “We have been looking for a new building for four years. The moment we walked through this building we knew we had found Rethreaded’s forever home. This building will quadruple our capacity to hire survivors and expand our business model. We are looking forward to being neighbors with both Springfield and East Side residents and businesses. I am confident that Rethreaded can help continue the economic development in both neighborhoods and are so proud to be part of the transformation of this area though business.” –  Kristin Keen, Rethreaded CEO & Founder, pictured in her new office.
