THANKSGIVING EDITION
Hope Center Houston

|
Giving thanks today for YOU!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
At Hope Center Houston, we give thanks to God every day, but especially today, for our volunteers, staff, donors, congregations, businesses, and board of directors-all who make it possible for us to serve our unsheltered guests. On behalf of all of our homeless friends...thank YOU!
A special day of thanksgiving with special food, special guests, and a special presentation were all provided for our guests at Hope Center Houston. In addition, warm winter coats, blankets, manna bags, hygiene bags, and more were distributed during the week to all of our homeless friends.
Andrew Rey, a previous HCH guest who recently received his Journeyman license from the Texas State Board of Plumbing, and a former recipient of the Achiever of the Year award from the Coalition for the Homeless, offered an inspiring Hope Talks presentation for all of our guests, volunteers, and community. Thank you, Andrew!
