Countdown to Christmas

Providing HOPE with a Christmas Heart!

As we approach the Christmas holiday season, we understand that this time of year can be a mix of joy and sadness for many. While some are eagerly decorating their homes and preparing for festivities, others may find themselves facing difficult circumstances, both emotionally and financially. It is during these moments that we are reminded of the true spirit of Christmas – a time for compassion, kindness, and giving.

 

At Mount Hope, we are excited to come together as a community and make a positive impact on those who may need a little extra support and love during this special time of year. We believe that every act of generosity, no matter how small, has the power to bring warmth and light into the lives of others.

 

This Christmas, we have partnered with three organizations, all with the shared goal of spreading love and hope throughout our local and regional community. These partnerships enable us to make a difference in the lives of families who might be facing hardship or loneliness.

 

Take a moment to view the options listed below and be a part of the difference we can make together. Your donations are invaluable, and they will help us continue to be a beacon of hope for those in need. Together, we can make this holiday season a little brighter for everyone. Thank you for being a part of our mission to brighten the lives of others this Christmas.

This year, our hearts are set on collecting 1,500 pairs of white tube socks for the men and women at Rappahannock County Regional Jail. We've always exceeded our goals in the past, and with your incredible support, we know we can make it happen once more. The socks must be all white, and they come in various sizes to ensure everyone feels the warmth of the season.
