What is Rehoboth People Have a Heart Inc.?

Posted

Rehoboth People Have a Heart, Inc. (RPHAH) is a non-profit corporation formed for the purpose of providing financial support to individuals and/or families in need of help due to illness, accident or unforeseen circumstances, who reside in Rehoboth or have a familial relationship to a resident of Rehoboth. 

During what seems to be an all too common conversation, Rob Johnson and Chip Ventura, were discussing a mutual friend who is suffering from cancer and the hardship it has placed upon him.  It was during this conversation that RPHAH was born.  Like many catastrophic illnesses, cancer does not hold back just because you have to work, support a family and pay bills.  If you are ill or have been injured in an accident the last thing you need to worry about is how you are going to afford your heat, rent, mortgage payment, food for your children.  RPHAH is comprised of residents and business owners that reside in and love Rehoboth.  What better way to give back to the community they love than offering that hand-up to its neighbors in need.

RPHAH is hosting its Kick-Off fundraiser May 3, 2020 at the Seekonk Rod and Gun Club.  Contact Rob Johnson for tickets.  Come and learn more about RPHAH and how you can get involved.
