Meet the Founder
William H. (Bill) Moore, M.A.
Founder, President & CEO, Project New Hope Inc.
United States Air Force Veteran
Bill Moore is the Founder, CEO & President of Project New Hope Inc., a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting Veterans, Service Members, and their families through food security, wellness programs, retreats, outreach, and community-based support.
A Service-Connected Disabled U.S. Air Force Veteran, Bill served from 1976 to 1980 as a Crash, Rescue and Fire Protection Specialist, with assignments at Rhein-Main Air Base in Germany and Cannon Air Force Base in New Mexico. His own experiences as a Veteran have shaped his lifelong commitment to ensuring that those who served our country, and the families who stood beside them, have somewhere to turn when they need support.
Bill earned a Bachelor of Science in Liberal Studies and a Master’s Degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from Assumption College. Before founding Project New Hope, he spent 25 years working for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and also provided counseling services in the community. He retired from state service due to his service-connected disability.
Together with his wife and PNH Co-Founder, Donna, Bill helped build Project New Hope from a grassroots effort into an organization serving Veterans and Military Families throughout Central and Western Massachusetts. Under his leadership, PNH has expanded its work to include Sully’s Veterans Food Pantry, Veterans Farmers Markets, Veteran and Caregiver wellness retreats, case management, community outreach, Coffee Socials, wellness programs, and other services designed to meet Veterans where they are.
Bill serves as CEO & President on a completely volunteer basis and receives no salary from Project New Hope. His philosophy is simple: Veterans deserve more than a referral or a phone number—they deserve people willing to stand beside them, connect the dots, and help them move forward.
That commitment remains at the heart of Project New Hope and its mission:
“Where Veterans Rebuild With Honor.”
