HopeSpoke Seeks Community Help to Provide Warm Clothing for Boys this Winter

As the weather gets colder, HopeSpoke (www.hopespoke.org) is seeking financial donations from the Lincoln community to provide warm coats, stocking hats and gloves for area boys in need this winter. They especially need new warm coats in sizes medium (M) through extra-large (XL) for boys ages 12–18 who are receiving residential treatment or intensive outpatient services at the Therapeutic Group Home. Thirty to forty boys and their families benefit from the program annually.

Your generous gift of $100–$125 will provide a new warm coat, stocking hat, and gloves for one boy in need. HopeSpoke is also in need of donations to help provide additional clothing, including shirts and pants for the boys throughout the year, as HopeSpoke inspires healthy futures for children and families through comprehensive behavioral and mental health services.

“We are so appreciative of the tremendous support from local donors who make sure that this need is met each year by donating funds that bring warmth and encouragement for children receiving services at HopeSpoke,” said Executive Director Katie McLeese Stephenson.

HopeSpoke offers mental-health services to families and individuals of all ages. For more information about their services or to give your gift online, go to www.hopespoke.org. You may also mail your gift to HopeSpoke at 2444 O St., Lincoln, NE 68510. If you have questions, please contact Development Director Jenny Cardwell at jcardwell@hopespoke.org or call (402) 475-7666.
