About Our Guest:

Jason Hurt and his wife Michelle Hurt are the founders of Chariots4Hope. After living on Long Island, NY for several years, they felt called by God to move to Omaha, where they started a small business together. After leaving the fast paced corporate life in the Big Apple, it was a blessing to have several months of downtime while they waited for their business to be built. Originally from the St. Louis area, they were very excited to get back to the MidWest.

A few years after opening their small business, their hearts started exploding for single mothers without transportation. It was during this season that Chariots4Hope was born!
