HOPE – The Hope Civitan Club recently donated 72 hygiene kits and a number of blankets to The Hope Connexion, located at 401 S. Washington Street in Hope. Pictured with Hope Connexion Outreach Center Director Amy Perry, second from left, are Civitans Amber Mackey, Twyla Pruden, and Judy Lee. The hygiene kits, each packaged in a colorful zipper bag, were made up of necessary items such as toothpaste, toothbrushes, and bath items.
The Hope ConneXion, a non-profit organization, provides cooling and warming centers, “blessing boxes” with non-perishable food items, and other means of support to those in need. The center’s monthly compassion collection for October is focused on socks and foot and hand warmers.
