Fostering Hope launches 2023 Christmas of Hope campaign
The 2023 Christmas of Hope campaign has begun!
Fostering Hope was presented with a $5,500 check from Joplin High School and Franklin Technology Center Tuesday afternoon.
Fostering Hope Executive Director Sarah Burch says they plan on helping more than 600 foster kids in the area have a great Christmas.
“Our goal is to raise $50 per child to spend on Christmas gifts and to support as many children as possible,” said Burch. “We ask kids to fill out a wish list of things they would like to get…December 13th we are going to have our big shopping day at the 15th Street Walmart at 9am.”
Any member of the community that would like to volunteer is welcome to join then on that Saturday, the 13th.
