How long has New Hope been doing The Giving Forest?
2023 will be our 31st year.
How does it work?
At New Hope we have tags on trees in our prayer walk. You grab a tag, buy the gift, return it at church. You can also give a monetary donation online.
Then on December 10th we have what is called "The Great Sort" where volunteers sort through all of the gifts and organize them together for each family that benefits from it.
Donations will be used to buy any gifts for tickets that are leftover and grocery gift cards for families.
