Gift of Hope helps families celebrate Thanksgiving

BRANDON, Fla - Responding to the great need in our community, several churches in the Greater Brandon area are partnering with ECHO once again this holiday season in sponsoring "Gift of Hope ," which is supplying everything that is needed to make a great Thanksgiving meal for some 500 families -- complete with turkey and all the fixings!

The give-away began Friday, with volunteers from Brandon area Churches, civic groups and Mosaic (who donated a truck-load of Turkeys and Chickens for those in need

But there's more giving on the way... in less than a month, they'll crank up the give-away at the First Baptist Church in Brandon for Christmas. At that time, not only will the families receive the items needed to make a great Christmas meal, but also have the opportunity to shop for toys for each of their children!

Donations are always welcome! For more information, or to donate, click on the Gift of Hope page for locations and sponsors.
