GHH wishes all of our supporters and donors a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

During this holiday season, GHH invites you again to consider joining us in 2012 by supporting the mission of Grandma’s House of Hope. We rely on your kindness and general support to make our programs successful and reach as many of those in need as we can — YOU determine how many we can help each year!

Please consider GHH as you make your end-of-year giving decisions. No gift is too small — GHH is committed to stretching your dollars to maximize the impact of your generosity. There are so many ways to help:

• Give $10 to provide 20 meals to a homeless child living in a motel
• Give $25 to provide a backpack and school supplies to a homeless child
• Give $55 to provide a one-month bus pass to a woman dedicated to finding a job

CLICK HERE to give one of the above values, or CLICK HERE to learn about the many different ways to donate to GHH this years.

Make 2012 YOUR year to get involved with GHH, and get involved in the mission of Grandma’s House of Hope!
