Events For Our Kids: Through donations of time, money and resources, we provide several events for our families throughout the year. Our events are designed for worry-free family fun.
Christmas Party: Our annual Christmas Party is an exclusive event for all of our families. Presents, presents and more presents, through generous donations, we provide great big bags of presents for our Wings of Hope kids as well as their siblings. Games, food, motor cycle rides (in the parking lot) and a visit from Santa Claus himself. To learn more about our Christmas Party and for ways you can help, click here.
Waves of Fun: Waves of Fun is an all day boating event for our Wings of Hope kids and their families. Through the generosity of boat owners across the Gulf Coast, we are able to provide a day of fun on the water for our kids. Just check out the pictures, they tell more than words can ever express. Even with less than perfect weather, everyone has a blast! To learn more about Waves of Fun and for ways you can helpl, click here.
Events For Fundraising: Without donations of time, money and resources, we would not be able to provide the type of events and support that our familes find so enjoyable and uplifting. While we accept dontaions any time throughout the year, we also host a number of events to help introduce the community to our efforts.
Dinner of Hope: The Dinner of Hope is a fund-raiser with a live auction and dinner at the Angus Restaurant. We are currently accepting auction items for the 2011 Dinner of Hope. For more information, click here.
Yard Sale: Held at the Pensacola Interstate Fair Grounds, we host one of the largest yard sales on the Gulf Coast. You can drop off your donated items or we will come pick them up. |
