About Us

Who We Are

Giving Hope. Changing Lives.

The Pledge of Giving Hope Foundation is a nonprofit dedicated to uplifting lives through compassion, care, and community. Founded by Dr. Elvis Francois and Dr. Grigoriy Arutyunyan of Big Apple Spine & Orthopedics, we bring tangible relief and lasting hope to those facing hardship—locally and abroad.

We focus our efforts on empowering single mothers in the greater New York area, providing shelter and education to children in Haiti, and delivering relief to children impacted by the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Our mission is rooted in one belief — that hope is powerful, and when shared, it can transform families, communities, and futures.

Join us as we take action to bring stability, opportunity, and dignity to those who need it most.
