Homes Tour Raises Alot of Money!

Back in December, St. Chrisopher's by the Sea Episcopal church had a Christmas Homes Tour and silent auction to raise money for Hannah's Hope. On Sunday, February 5th, we were presented with a check for $7200! All I can say is. . .WOW! We never expected to receive so much.

We are grateful for the donation which will help us extend services to other families in the Coastal Bend area. So much work went into putting on the Homes Tour. We just can't say "thank you" enough.

The best thing is the willingness of the community of Portland partnering with the staff and parents of Hannah's Hope to provide for these very special children. There were many people involved in putting on this event. Of course, most of the work was done by members of St. Christopher's, but I would also like to thank Gateway church for their participation. Thank you, Penny Hattersley and your "team" for all the wonderful fruits and vegetables and for your eagerness to help out in the kitchen. Thanks to all the homeowners so willing to open their beautiful homes up for us to tour. And thanks to all of the businesses and individuals donating items for the silent auction.

Like I have said before, even more than the money, is the fact that our community cares about these children with autism. I know that brings encouragement to every parent living with autism. Thank you.
