GET INVOLVED
There are many ways to get involved with Bags of Hope! The first and easiest is to PRAY! Another easy way to be a part of what we're doing in our community is to GIVE. You can click "GIVE" in the menu for more information regarding that aspect of involvement.
Part of the vision of Bags of Hope is that the responsibility of caring for children in foster care does not solely rest on the social workers and the state... neither does it rest on an organization such as ours! The responsibility belongs to ALL OF US! So with that, our vision for the functioning part of Bags of Hope is to include as many churches, groups, and organizations as possible. When we all lift the burden together and help each other carry the load, it's much more manageable!

BUY OR SELL ORNAMENTS
Each ornament represents one child who will receive a Bags of Hope duffle bag this year. Every ornament includes the name of a specific child. Purchasing an ornament helps provide them with a personalized bag filled with comfort, dignity, and practical items during a time of transition.
You can purchase ornaments individually or partner with us by selling them through your church, workplace, or community.
