It’s a new year which means starting off fresh with new goals, resolutions and new opportunities to make this year better than the last.

Maybe you’re looking for a way to get involved with helping others in this new year. We have a great opportunity for you!

You may not be aware that we have a Ladies Auxiliary at the Hope Center. Our Ladies Auxiliary plans various fundraisers throughout the year. Such fundraisers include ham sandwich sales, Easter bake sale, and a Christmas Bazaar to name a few. The proceeds from these fundraisers help to underwrite the ministry of the Hope Center.

To give you an idea of more specific ways the funds help around the Hope Center, the money is used to purchase equipment and supplies, purchase Christmas gifts for the residents, purchase food for the pantry and sponsor special events such as the Summer picnic and Christmas party for the residents.

This wonderful group of ladies meet the first Monday of each month at the Administrative Offices at the Hope Center. Following the meeting, the ladies enjoy a time of fellowship and refreshments.

If you are interested in getting involved in this ministry then please give our office a call at 301.739.1165 or email us at hagerstownrescue@verizon.net.

As we look into new ways of reaching those in need, our Ladies Auxiliary is an important and extremely vital part of making these outreaches come to life.

If you are busy, like so many of us today, this is a great opportunity for you to get involved in an incredible way without making a huge time commitment. Please consider joining our Ladies Auxiliary and helping to make 2012 better for all the men, women and children in our community that we reach.
